how much do you weigh? I think your torso is proportionally a bit shorter than average compared to your inseam, just like me.
I think that, while the top tube length and reach is a good size on the large for you, the relatively short stack paired with the 110mm stem would cause you to lean forward a bit too much.
If that's what you want, then you'll be good. But if you get the bike id suggest playing around with saddle positioning and different length stems to find the perfect fit for you.
175mm crank arms for your inseam *may* be a little bit small for you, but only you can determine that for yourself based on factors such as torso angles and pedalling style. 180mm would probably be better, but its your decision whether that up grade is worth it or not.
