Or a Trek Domane should work.
You can forget anything from Cannondale or a Pina.
For something moving toward the gravel bike camp, a Blue Prosecco EX (sloping top tube, now) would work.
Without knowing his arm length I don't know how you came to that conclusion. Further to the point. A CAAD is perhaps the most traditional bike left on the market. So yeah, your post makes about as much sense as a screen door on a submarine.
