    I have one and I am the same height as you with slightly shorter inseam.

    When I put me measurements into the Canyon body fit calculator it to came back at 54cm.

    I plumped for the 56cm as the geometry was not far off the Focus I was riding. Headtube on the canyon is slightly longer than the Focus.

    I did the online bikefit be for before buying mine. Had a pro fit done after and it matched up good. I'm on a 56 and i'm around the same size.

    Bukowski are you the talent, original American author who drank and shagged like it was going out of fashion. If so you're my hero. Shouldn't the post office buy you a bike?
