If you have doubts now, they may linger and sour your decision over time, nothing worse than buyer's remorse that you could have prevented.
This is what I was about to say.... You stole my thunder. When I went in for a fitting last week at the LBS, they had a 55' Bianchi which I thought felt good. They really wanted to sell me that model but I wanted an Eros and told them to order me a new one. Guess what? After fitting me correctly, they told me I was a 53! Can you believe that! If I had said nothing, I would have walked out the LBS with a 55 and it would have been too big!
My advice. If you don't know your correct fit, don't buy the display bike . EVER! Test ride several bikes then have the LBS order you a new one!
