Well put.

I'm 6'2" and also have a 820mm bb-to-saddle height (inseam is hardly 39" though...). I prefer to size down so I get adequate weight on the front wheel and feel balanced front/rear, while making sure the head tube (stack) is tall enough. Domane (2017) and Roubaix are good choices. Also on my radar: Cervelo C3, Gunnar Sport, Kona's steel offerings, Soma Fog Cutter. There are gobs of used Roubaixs available, and sell if you had to, at minimal loss.
