everybody is different. However at 6'1" a 56 cm frame might not be that far off. I'm 6'1". I ride a Giant sized M/L, (which has a 57.5cm TT)

My TT bike is a 56cm. On the other hand my Merlin is a 59cm.

You just have to try it out and see if it works for you.

That said, abike that doesn't fit, is not a bargain.
