Hello, I’m just starting out and trying to get ready for my first real bikepacking trip in September.
Where I live is really hard to find a used good touring/bikepacking bike.
But few days ago I found an author ronin bike that was in perfect condition so I bought it.
But I think the bike is bit too big for me, I’m 173 and the bike is size c-t 56, (c-c 52).
Can I make this work? If i maybe change the stem or put spacers or something like mthat?

Is that the saddle height you rode?
You can shorted the stem if the reach is a little far, but if that doesn’t solve it, I’d recommend parting with the bike.
I bought one that was slightly too big because I got it for a steal. Nothing I did ever got it to work for me, always felt like I was riding someone else’s bike.
I’m pretty sure this bike is not the “correct one” for me, but I’m asking is there anything I can do to the bike to make it better for my height
