I'm 6'2, 34.5" legs and long arms, ride a 55 nirone w/ 130 stem, have about a 5" drop and love it.
The 57 is right at the middle ground, so you should be fine, just ask them to leave you about 1 1/2" of spacers under the stem for your fitment, whether you like the bars high with the saddle or down low.

I'm 5'11" and ride a 61mm Eros.
Jesus also rides a steel Bianchi. It's true.

I am 5'7 or 5'8 and I was just offered a Bianchi Eros that is 57cm. Is that too big for me?
