What in general needs to be adjusted for a frame on the 'short side' ?

Hello,

I would like to fit a 2015 Salsa Warbird 55cm. From the Salsa website fit link the 55cm has a recommendation for riders 165-175cm. I am 179cm

I will try to set up a fitting appointment but I was wondering, in general, what are the most obvious adjustments that would be made in this particular case?

I'm guessing a longer stem and shifting the bicycle seat rails back by an inch ;-) ?
