Gunnar for a Clyde?

Hey folks, long time no see. I'm still truckin. Hit 10,000 miles on my LHT and I'm thinking of buying a new roadie to celebrate the milestone.

I'm looking at the Gunnar Fastlane and Hyper-X frames. At this point I'm thinking I'd like something a bit more sporty than the LHT, so I can keep up with my clubmates a bit easier. But I'm unsure of whether that's a wise choice. Will the shorter wheelbase cause issues for an uberclyde (350+)? Or are there any other considerations I should take into account?

Other frames I'm looking at in the off-chance that I decide Gunnar isn't right for me are Surly Straggler, Kona Rove, and Salsa Vaya.
