So I’m stuck in a bit of a spot. Looking at getting a new endurace in either the cf or cf slx.
I’m somewhere between 6f and 6f1. Wife says 6.5 and my inseam is around 33.5-34 this puts me squarely inbetween both of these sizes.
My current bike is a 2015 tarmac elite in a 58. I love this bike but would like to be a little more relaxed. Iv already done a lot to it to shorten the reach. 80mm stem new bars and seat all the way forward. It still feels a bit too stretched for me and I constantly get saddle numbness. I know this could just be a saddle problem but if I’m sitting to far foreward because of reach it could cause this as well.
Unfortunately a bike fit is not possible for me in the area I live in.
Anyone got any advice?

Also I called canyon and used the live chat. Both the people I talked to immediately told me to get a L as soon as I said my current bike was a 58. But they complety disregarded the reach issue I was having I believe.
I have a very similar build with average arm lengths. The 22′ Ultimate in the Medium fit me well, but the reach felt a bit long with the 100mm stem. The Endurace seems to have a 13mm shorter reach so I would recommend the size M.
This is the tool I used for frame comparisons between the two: [Tool](https://bikeinsights.com/compare?geometries=6094b3e3f58a78001cfef952,64df88f5bca6bf001b07a380)
