That being said OP have you tried getting a fit? That could help.

Going custom might be your answer, first you would get a fit perfect your body measurements but you would also be able to give customer frame builders what kind of ride quality you want i.e stiff and light or comfortable and relax, heck you could tell them what your "dream ride" is and they can figure out what frame you need with tube diameter, wall thickness and tube selection. Good frame builders would be Independent Fabrication, Moots, Alchemy however down side would be wait time depending on the builders. Hope that helps you out.
