Generally you sit in the saddle , pull the seat post up to a decent leg extension,

while you are riding the bike, how does the reach to the bars feel ?

if too far fit a different stem maybe higher and closer [as you have a longer stem quill it will be closer] .
so maybe higher bars and a bit longer stem will suit you.

feel too cramped?, then the bars would be better further away from you..

Self examine how it feels by riding it .. and thinking about how the fit feels.

smaller frame sizes have a shorter top tube length, generally.

In NL the hills are mostly in the Maastricht province .
