help me decide on a TI

Ok the deacon needs to discernment and I figure the Lord calls this mammon. I am looking at either a Lynskey 250 in a large frame in a large with Shimano 5800. The price is good right now and all the indications are this is a top company they have been helpful on phone or email

But we have the Bikesdirect Motobecane Le Champ Ti with Shimano 6800 for less cash and the better group. To the the group at Lynskey it is $3350. BD bike looks really nice I actually like the looks better less sloping TB and no concerns I am a wrench can deal with any build or what is needed. The Lynskey may be a better from overall but not really sure. I had a brother deacon former racer cat 1, who said he had a Moto Ti and it was fantastic save the money over Lynskey. He did get a different model one with disk brakes.

So give me some stuff and lastly if I go with the BD I am 6"2 and should I get a 56 or a 59? Normally I ride a 59-60 35 cycle inseam but I am 55. It seems the price is about $600 more for Lynskey and getting 5800. Help
