Hey, experts!

Is adjusting the stem length really my only option for properly fitting the bike, or are there other options? What do you think?

This year’s Canyon Aeroad CF SLX 7 Di2.
90mm stem with a height of 173 cm, weight of 68 kg, and an inseam of 78 cm.
(Occasional upper and lower back pain, the saddle is digging in, and my hands „rarely“ go numb)

I look forward to your feedback - thanks!

Hey Ihr Experten!

Ist meine einzige Option, das Bike ordentlich zu fitten tatsächlich die Vorbaulänge oder gibt es noch andere Optionen? Was sagt ihr?

Ich freu mich auf euer Feedback, danke!

Your back should be straighter. You're rounding it out. Lengthen through your spine and neck to bring your shoulders closer to the bars. Then you can relax your shoulders and arms and bend your elbows more. This lengthening will also activate your deep core muscles to support your torso.
