I realize this is a difficult question to answer online but was hoping for some feedback before I follow up this one further...
On the Fuji I was running 5cm setback and 110mm stem.
Dolan and Teschner seem to have steeper seat angles so fit a bit bigger than the top tube size so I suspect the 55 may be the same net size as most 56cm bikes. A degree of seat angle is about the same as 1cm of top tube if you keep the saddle setback the same.
