hi, thanks for reaching out.
yes, you're certainly off the charts with those stack and reach numbers, and definitely run into the issue of a 54cm not being long enough given an orthodox time trial position.
the highest a 54cm goes, assuming you don't add the EX10 mono-riser, is about 662mm, at a reach of 419mm.
The longest a 54cm adjusts is about 463mm to 492mm between a stack of 662mm to 575mm.
Can you sit on your friend's bike? Max out the pads and see how it feels.

I am a bit in the same situation (and sizing!) than pkeys: owner of a road bike (Canyon Endurace CF 54) with aero bars, looking for a first triathlon bike.
I would have the opportunity to buy a friend’s P5D size 54. I made a bike fit last week and have following measurements:
Height 1m84 (6’00)
Inseam 84cm (33 inches)
Saddle height 76.5cm (79.6 before fit)
Saddle setback 8.3cm (9.6 before fit)
Saddle to base bar distance 53.5cm
Saddle to hoods distance 68.7cm
Drop (height between saddle and base bar) 5cm
Stem 100mm, 6 degrees
Cranks 172.5mm
For what it is worth, it measured current stack and reach (approximatively), but as mentioned they make no sense due to the fact that they are measured on an endurance road bike…
Pad X 37,5cm
Pad Y 68,5cm
I have rather short legs and a long torso, I am afraid that the 54 will be low but might be not long enough, what do you think?
Many thanks in advance.
