Hi guys,
I am currently in the market to buy a Speedmax SLX and debating between S and M. Today I drove both at Canyon HQ. I am exclusively doing long-distance triathlons.
My size is 1,78 cm 5`10
Inseam 85,7 cm
Forearm 35cm

In the playlist you also find my current bike fit (which is too short in reach).
According to Canyon I am between S & M. I did not feel cramped on the S but the gap between high seat and low front felt really big (is it possible to change this massively with the included spacers?).
My fitter recommended S (only knowing my size, has not seen the videos, his advice was "making a small bike bigger is easy, other way around not"), in most forums people with same data mostly recommend M.
What would you advise according to the videos.
As I am doing a special lease model (Europe) it is not possible to switch to shorter cranks on the M.
Thanks for your help in advance.
