Is 5.7 cm in the frame safe? I guess I could always get a longer seatpost anyway. I don't know what's the size that comes with the bike and the dealer has no way to know it either as they don't have any Lexa in stock.
I'll try and ask on Trek's website, they have been helpful and answered some of my questions maybe they will know. It was from them that I found out the stem size from the different frame sizes.
EDIT: So according to the Trek assistant the seat post has only 25 cm :/
25 cm for a compact geometry frame seems extremely short. I'll measure a 50 and a 52 cm Lexa at work tomorrow, and get back to you later. I'll look at seat post length, total extension, and where that puts the saddle relative to the range of handlebar height.
