Modern Sportive frames now come with a geometry that gives a more upright and shorter reach than the tradtional long low stretched out full blown racer position.
They are going to have a compact geometry ie with sloping up top tube towards the front rather than the old skool horizontal top tube.
You could look at Specialized Roubaix range (sportive) and compare these to the Tarmac range (race) for instance to give you an idea.
This would be one way to go unless you are fixed on a horizontal top tube.Then look at Pegoretti for the extended headtube look.
Or you go bike fit / custom as has been suggested.
