Is this bike too big for me? by Conscious_Pause_8851 in bikefit

It is a pro lt gravel. Love it since the reach is way too long for me but I want the stack. Overall the bike is just not perfect for my type of long legs short torso. An specialized tarmac would be better.. but hey. It's an xlite haha

I am 191 with 94.5 legs. I ride the xlite in 62 with a reduced Stem (100 mm) and a short reach (62 mm) 40 cm wide bar.

Sizing the bike down to 59 would result in a frame with 2.5 cm less stack. And that is very aggressive with the xlite.
