I am new to road cycling. I just received my first road bike, a Canyon Endurace 6, which I am very happy about. I am 190 cm tall with a 94 cm inseam, but my arm span is longer than average (208cm) so I chose the XL size instead of the L (as I was between sizes). I don't regred my decision as L would be more like a toy to me I think 🙂

My only concern is whether I should shorten the stem by 1 or 2 cm (original is 110 mm), as I feel a bit stretched out compared to my hybrid bike, which I have ridden until now. But maybe this is something natural with road bikes (?)

Do you have any suggestions if I should make any modifications to the bike? Does the size look okay?

Thanks in advance!
