A bigger frame will tend to put you in a slightly more upright position because your saddle height has to remain the same (determined by leg length) but the head tube will be taller. So if I were you the first thing I'd be looking at is whether your current bike is, in fact, smaller than you'd like. Ride a 58cm frame and see how that feels.
Thanks, really helpful. At first I was thinking maybe I might need a 54 (mainly basing it on the competitive cyclist calculator), but was also thinking the same thing about 58.
