Geometry Question

Need some help about frame geometry from you guys.

I had a Cervelo T1 for 3 years and it served me well but an oportunity came up and I sold it.

I'm contemplating getting a Dolan DF4, however Dolan's geometry is so different from my T1 and my road bike, a BMC Race Machine that I'm kinda lost.

DF4's have a much shorter TT but a much much longer reach, the stack is also a lot shorter but I was expecting that since it's very low. I was pretty confortable using the T1, does that mean that the DF4 is not for me? What other framesets I should be looking at at this price point?

Here's the measurements:
The stack/reach/effective top tube length for the T1 is: 51/373/529
The stack/reach/effective top tube length for the BMC RM01 is: 53/378/535
The stack/reach/effective top tube length for the DF4 is: 477/392/515
