@Ollyit, I'm slightly shorter than you at 5'7" and have a Giant TCR in a Medium. The seattube and cranks (172.5mm) suit me fine, but the reach was a little far for my stubby arms and I've swapped the 110mm stem for a 90mm .
All is good!
Incidentally, why are you getting the Defy 5? There's a Defy 4 on sale at Ash Cycles for £439... http://www.ashcycles.com/site/giant-defy-4-triple-2011?zenid=3a482722cfd40b58136c1f9c37ec09ff
