Smile Switching Frame

Hi,
actually my bike is the ("Masi Uno Drop: size 56 c-t-t and i have a 110mm Stem on it"),
i'm 5"11 with 32.5 inseam "NO SHOES", about 33.5 "WITH SHOES"
i love the fit but i can not achieve a good chainline with my new Miche Advanced Crankset as the crank are too close to the chainstay and the chainline is very bad, so i will sell this frame and buy a new one..
i have been looking at the bike-shop and they have the Masi Coltello size 56-58
.. very very good looking frame. but as the seller say it's more aggressive than my actual frame.. i don't ride at the velodrome, i just go for endurance rides on weekends. and from home to school in very high traffic conditions
the bike shop is 3 hours from my home, but he can ship it to me..


i'm not sure about the Coltello Frame.. i think the 56 is a bit small and the 58 will just be right..
but i don't want throw 600$ in the wrong frame, i ask here for some advice before be sure going to buy it
here below i will post the photo of the bike geometry differences, and the photo of my actual bike..
tnx
