I'm sure it will be different in the size you need, but I'm 6'5" and compared the 62 cm Domane to the XXL Endurace. Besides the 2019 Endurace being $900 cheaper for a full 105 groupset, the Domane had 1.2 cm more stack but 3.1 cm less reach. That would lead to a very upright position which would feel squished for me.
Good info. It'll be interesting to compare stack vs. reach. I had a Specialized Roubaix years ago and despite putting a shorter stem on, it seemed to have too much reach for me. Now I'm riding a flat bar road bike which is very upright. I'm shooting for something in the middle. And comfort has to be key -- dragging this old body out for long rides isn't as easy as it used to be!!
