My concern with this, would be that the reach would be too much? Im not 100% sure how the geometry works, can someone let me know if the geometry is aggressive? If it is, it would mean that I would be leaning quite a bit forward to reach the hoods?
Im trying to cross reference with a 2017 Raleigh RX 2.0 that I currently own, but is just a tiny bit too big for me. My saddle is already slammed, and the stem cant get any shorter. But Im having issues comparing sizes because it seems like they are way off on the website I found for the Raleigh.

For what it’s worth, I was between sizes just like you are, and I chose to size down when I bought an Endurace. I’m 6’1” with a 34” inseam, and Canyon recommends a size Large, but it was just barely within the bounds of Large. So I got a Medium and I’m glad I did, it’s a really comfortable size for me. Just be aware that if you size down, your saddle will be a bit higher relative to your bars, so it’ll be more of an aggressive stance on your upper body.
