I‘m 177.5 and 80,5cm and I ride an Ultimate (previously an Endurace) and Grizl in S – fits me very well.
Sat on an M Endurace once and it didn’t fit me.

if I’m between sizes, I always opt for the smaller one. Usually I’d always recommend go for the smaller one, but if this has a proprietary cockpit where you can’t change the stem length, just be aware of that. If you have any other bikes that fit you well, measure the reach / effective top tube length to and compare it with the different sizes Canyon has on their website. If this was my decision, I’d go for a S. It’s better to have a bike that’s slightly too small then slightly too big. You can fix small, you can’t fix big.

That’s a good edge case. If would highly advise to test ride both, as there is a good amount of personal preference in the decision. You can definitely fit both with maybe some adjustments. M will have less height difference between handlebar and saddle, in s the saddle will be quite high.

You should go with S. The saddle height would be too low on the M. Even if it’s just above the minimum setting the saddle-to-bar drop would be minimal even with the bar slammed.
The reach on the S might be a bit short for you. Luckly the Grizl CF SL has a standard bar and stem so it will be trivial to replace the stem with a longer one to compensate for this,

I have very similar measurements and faced this choice when buying an Endurace a few weeks ago. I have long arms even when considering my long torso and found the small Endurace a little cramped. The stack height for me didn’t make much of a difference, as I’d either ride the small with the spacers or the medium slammed.
