New road bike buying advice

which one? I have a Ribble endurance Al 105

This one: https://www.ribblecycles.co.uk/ribble-r872-disc-anthracite-shimano-105/?childSku=BB872DBL102&affwin=Y&affid=78888&utm_source=AffiliateWindow&utm_medium=Sub%20Networks&utm_campaign=78888&awc=5923_1686040882_0aad428f477c4d9268bbcba442eeb048

I was going to suggest that but it was pre order. Did you get the X-small?

No I went for a small. Haven't ordered the bike itself yet, just requested a voucher which takes a while. I think delivery is expected in August, which I can live with.

Thanks to everyone for all the suggestions. I have today requested a Cyclescheme voucher for the Ribble (disc, 105, carbon so perfect!).

After recommending it, I hope you like it as much as I like mine, fingers crossed 🙂

PS if you're after mudguards for winter, SKS Longboard in the narrow size fit well after removing one bracket from the front one. Dry feet and arse 🙂

As an update, the bike arrived yesterday.  Went for a ride. Love it for the most part but feel the reach is way too long and I feel very stretched out. The stem is already pretty short at 80cm so not  really sure what the opinions are. RIbble's suggestion is to take it to a bike shop to set it up, which is a bit disappointing as I thought they may offer a bit more proactive help for a new bike. Anyway will have to come back to it next week as am away till then.

I've got a 70mm on mine with a positive angle stem at the top of the spacers.  x-small Id have been hunched over too much.    I would set your saddle position then look to the bars height and angle along with the hood position.  This is my first road bike and it took me a while to get to a good position.
