    It appears you are looking for bike fitting help. Please make sure you post as screenshot of the Canyon size chart for your bike, with your point in it. See [this example](https://imgur.com/a/ALUfXyy)

    Well the pics are suboptimal. First pic not being in the hoods – you look like my grandpa on his bike and the bike seems small.
    Second pic the angle is not optimal.
    Second and third pic you can see that your saddle is to high. This hinders hip flexion and reduces your reach. You can also see that your lower back is compensating. You also have fully extended arms. 

    General advice is to size down but on the last pic the bike looks a bit small imo.
    If you would lower your saddle a bit and get more flexion in your hip the already really short reach would become even shorter. So it’s hard to definitely say but M might fit you better. Couldn’t you do a test ride on a M too?

    Edit: the stem is now also available for purchase. So if the M would have a reach that would be a tad too long you could buy a 90 stem and lower the reach.

    Being similar build, the canyon sizing chart says I’m small. But the Endurace Small felt too cramped for me, a medium frame felt a lot more comfortable for me

  4. Pics are almost useless. Try again with your cycling shoes, photos taken from the side, with your camera-side pedal at the bottom of the pedal stroke.

    With all of that being said, I don’t think this is too small for you. I am 174cm and rode an XS Aeroad.

    I’m 6’2″ and 86 inseam and I ride a medium in the Aeroad and it fits like a dream

  6. How do you feel on it? Are you comfortable? I’d always size down if I was between sizes.

  7. You are right in between sizes. the worst place to be. I tend to go for a smaller bike and make it work by adjusting things like the steam length. The S is probably ok for you
