I'm not completely certain how good your current frame is, but i wouldn't be surprised to see that you should spend some of that grand on a fit, a stem, and a groupset or wheels instead of buying another bike. I'm your height and ride a 51 allez (09) and i'm wondering if this frame was a little large for me simply because of my legs to torso ratio. /remembers that not all 50's are created equally...

yeah, get fit on your current bike. if it just isn't working for you...well shoot, go ahead and buy that new frame.
