That's a fit problem, not a road bike one.
I frequently ride a high zoot full carbon race geometry bike for my commute. Considering it's 28 miles each way, it's surprisingly the most comfortable of the bikes I use. Cross bike is the most comfortable, but it's almost identical geometry wise to the carbon one with the comfort coming from the 32's on it I'm sure.
