I also Ride a 56CM road bike, and was wondering if this 19" will fit me????

The reason I recommend the hardtail is because it will be much more efficient and much more fun than a bare-butt bottom of the barrel Dakar dually.
I have a Dakar XLT and love it, but I'd rather ride a nice hardtail than the bike you suggest.
