you shouldn't sizing track bikes w/ stand-over, or any bike really, but track bikes have a bottom bracket that is about an inch higher than your standard road bike, which throws people off.

if you felt has a 56 top tube, and you can only ride it with a short 80mm stem, you'd probably be better off with a 54 or 55 top tube so you can get a longer stem on there.
