What is your inseam? I had the exact same problem. I was sold a bike that I touch when standing over. It too is a 17.5 inches. But I was told it is high because of the BB and the fact that it is a full squish (sag).
I ended up buying another bike, FS. But that one is a 15 and fits perfectly. Click on my sig to see the difference between the frames where the top tube meets the seat tube. The red one is the big one.
