If it really was only a "little bit" too stretched out, there are ways to fix this. You might try a size smaller to shorten the cockpit, or you might try a size larger to make it easier to get the handlebars up above the saddle. A shorter stem and/or handlebars with some backward sweep (Nitto Noodles, if you're looking for drop bars) will also help.

They're really nice bikes. Don't discount them if you didn't have time to dial in a fit.
