Looking at a new frame for long distance rides and possibly some gravel stuff. Will be Ti with carbon fork and discs. Will have clip on aerobars for really long rides, too.

The geo chart is at the bottom.

I currently ride a 60cm supersix evo HM (2015) with a slight setback post, 110mm stem and about 3cm worth of spacers.

here's the geo for that

I'm 6ft5 and apparently I have a positive ape index (long arms) along with long legs but a relatively short torso.

How does the geo of the new bike look for me in size 60? I can customize the frame if I like so if anything leaps out as not quite right, lemme know.

Ideally I'd like a bikefit for this stuff but £££

Simple, do you want it shorter/higher etc. then go for the one with the correspond measuremnt (such as for shorter, the 58cm provide a higher handlebar position and a shorter reach).

Okay, I get you.

Generally, does that geo chart look like a decent endurance/comfortable bike? It's got taller headtube, shorter reach than my current bike (racy/aggresive) so I think it should work.
