Ah. Never adjust reach by moving the saddle. Change the stem length for that. You want the saddle where it should be to give you good balance on the bike, little weight on the hands, no feeling of falling forward. Then see what stem length you need to get reach correct. My bike fitting primer is here: https://www.bikeforums.net/21296948-post3.html

Go through the steps from top to bottom, in order.
