Not enjoying my road bike!

[defy-one]

Defo wrong size, but set the saddle as stated above, then think about a longer stem.

In 2010 a load of us on here bought the very same bike.105 gears,i changed the saddle to a Charge spoon.I just love it.I am 6'-4" and have a 34" inside leg,i got the 61cm frame,then i put a longer seatpost on so it went safely past the welding.
It's a super bike,i hope you get yours sorted out.

Perhaps you would be happier with a good hybrid, there are some very good ones out there these days and at the end of the day, it's what feels right for you.
Good luck

You buy a road bike for speed, not comfort.

People get used to it.

Put me on the list of interested people if you are selling it. My Secteur Sport is the same size, and my son wants to steal that, so I know the size is right.

That said, I do understand what you mean about the MTB being more fun. My most fun ride is a 1990 Giant Coldrock.

[oilyormo]

keep em both.
if you commute and the weathers wet use the mtb. if dry use the road bike.
poor weather at weekends plan an off road ride. dry plan a road ride.

Simples!

I do have a hybrid as well as it happens. A Spesh Sirrus Sport that my wife used when I got the Secteur. Will perhaps have to nick it back off her!

By coincidence, my son has a Sirrus too.
