Every style of riding is different- in how you fit the bike to you, and the sizing of the bike itself. It’s more than just measuring your height, reach and inseam. With the help of Bike Fitting, you’ll be able to find the right fit for your frame size, style of riding, and your particular dimensions. Here ya’ go…..the location for everything fit related.

Hard to be sure as the pic isn't completely 'side on'. Looking at the spacer stack, the frame could be a bit too small.
My only comment would be that it looks like your saddle needs to go back a bit but otherwise I don't see much wrong with your position.
