That bike has a pretty high standover, even with sloping top tube.
The med has 30" standover. You can get 54cm roadies with level TT and the same standover.
The advantage would be you could have the saddle a few cm above the bars without resorting to a 450mm seatpost.
This is your second thread on the subject. Why the obsession?
