Road bike fitting(sizing) confusion

First, greetings to all

I am 186.5cm tall and inseam = 90,5 cm . What is optimal road bike frame for me ?

I used all calculators available on the internet, and they cant agree for the right frame size.

some of them suggest down from 57cm , and maximum I got is 62 cm.

There are many frame manufacturers today and some of them produce classic frame some produce sloping frames.

If we watch effective top tube it can wary from 55 to 59 for 59cm frame size.

Ill write down some tables, so if someone can give opinions related:

one frame type :
57cm seat tube , 57.4cm effective top tube 73°
59cm seat tube 58.7cm effective top tube 73°

other frame type:

57cm top tube 55,5 cm eff top tube
59cm top tube 57cm effective top tube
