The bike with that setup seat height and low stem is feel too big. I have to lower little the seat and raise the stem little or i need smaller frame 54cm? or maybe 55cm.

I'm 5'7" with a 30" inch inseam. I ride a 54 cm gravel road/adventure bike, which is the spot on size for me. You're better off with a 54 or in an odd size, a 55.

If you're considering a road bike with a long top tube, like a Lemond, you need to go down one size to a 53.
