    Use Canyon PPS system. If you think the answer is wrong email Canyon. If the bike turns up and it's the wrong size you can send it back and swap it.

    This. Probably a large though.

    I have a strive al in medium and at 173 cm it fits me perfectly, i dont know if that's of any help.

    the stem on the strive is quite short, i think mine is only 50mm so keep that in mind.

    You can't size a bike based purely on your height.
    As an example I ride an XL Nukeproof Mega but I know of someone an inch taller than me who rides the same bike with a medium frame. I have quite long legs for my height, he has quite short legs.
    Check the geometry against your current bike.
