Judging by the saddle height it looks like the standover height would be fine, the 2019 sizes were 52 and 45 (a 7cm differnce), so I think the problem is the handlebars with built in stem is limiting your ability to dial in the reach. Somebody suggested an Albatross, but I use those on normal top tube bikes, for that style bar I would recommend the Billie bar which is similar to the Albatross, but has longer hand area so comes back further towards you. Hopefully you have a stem or two to start with. I try a few and sometimes don't put grips on for awhile or just wrap the grips with drop bar type tape until I figure it out.
