Also considering the surly straggler 640b since it goes down to 38cm in size.

I thought you were after an expensive bike since you mentioned the PRO model.

The Surly 650b is a HUGE bike. 26" mountain wheels are smaller and would be better than 650b. I know its confusing because 650C is a small wheel.

I don't really like the Diamondbacks either.

The islabike Luath24 had 145mm cranks which I did like. To be honest you will likely have to move the saddle rearwards on anything your going to buy.
