To me it looks about right. I prefer my bikes to be smaller rather than larger. If yours is too small then so are my five bikes; but I wouldn’t care as I can ride them as long as I like and they perform exactly as I like.
130 is on the long side but if that’s what you need then so be it.
How tall are you?
How does it feel? Can you ride it for 8 hours without discomfort? Do you feel cramped up or stretched out?

Yeh, cheers.
It was a mate that pointed it out to me and like an earworm, it's been stuck in my head ever since.
I wouldn't say I've ever really had issues doing long distance on it.
I'm 183cm on the dot, longish back, hence the long stem. I usually run a long stem on all my bikes. I feel alright on it, but I think a bit more stretch would be better, but not the end of the world.
Been trying to convince myself my bike is the correct size. Just bought a 130mm stem for it to increase the reach.
Every time I see myself on it, I can't help but think it looks like a BMX 😂 simple solution; don't look at myself on my bike.
It's a 56cm Tarmac. Is it too small?
