Actually your Competitive Fit numbers don't look too bad. You might want to double-check your body measurements just to make sure (use a capable assistant to double check you), and to try the other fit options on the Competitive Cyclist site. The Competitive fit is for modern racing-type riding. More comfort can usually be had using one of the other two options.

My inseam is a little longer than yours though my height is 168 cm. This could be just a quirk of human variation, or suggest you're measurements to be off. Not that we must match, but it's worth it to check, right?

If you can find a site that gives you frame stack and frame reach, you might use those to double-check what you got from Competitive.
