agree, I don't get concerned that I've selected too large a frame unless I have to go less than 90mm. Interestingly, that is a longer than normal effective top tube length for that frame designation. Btw, I always found that if I made use of trekking bars, invariably I would have to put a much longer stem on than I would otherwise if using drop bars because of the way the design comes back towards you (if that makes sense) so maybe you won't even need a shorter stem if you go that route.
