Frame size

Hi !

Here my 1st post.

Ok, I order a Trek Marlin 29er @ my local bike shop and I have a question about frame size.

I am 5'11 and my inseam is 33. The guy @ the shop told that he recomends a 17.5 frame for me, but I've been reading about frame size and by chart look like for my numbers a 19 is what most charts recomends.

Seems like I'm in the borderline of both frame sizes. I went and order the 17.5 as the bike shop guy told me.

My question is this recomendation is genuine? Will i feel a 17.5 too short?

Any comment will help.

Thanks
