What frame size fits me?!

I currently ride a Trek 1000 Road bike (frame size C-T 60cm), but that one is too small. The distance between the top of my seat and center of the bottom bracket is around 86cm (which means a stand over of 110cm).

I'm about to buy a new Trek 7.3FX (a bike from their Fitness series), but I don't know if the frame is supposed to be about the same size, bigger or maybe even smaller.
I ordered a 22,5", but after having done some research I'm leaning more towards a 25". With a shorter stem that should work. If I change my mind soon I'll be able to change the 22,5 into a 25".
My guess is that with a 22,5 the handlebar drop will be too large.

BUT does anyone know if the fitness bike frame is supposed to be smaller or bigger than a road bike?

I hope someone can tell what the best frame size would be...
my length is 191cm /6'3
my inseam is 94,5cm
torso: 65cm

Thanks in advance,
Linda
