Probably.
Just guessing, not having seen either you or the bike, I'd say that's most likely the ideal size for you.
That said, it's often occured to me that using seat tube length as the "rule of thumb" for sizing bikes is mega dumb. Saddle height is the easiest adjustment to make on a bicycle.

Doesn't Flickr threaten you with using their site to sell things 10 Wheels? They did me. Apparently services they don't mind you putting a link in the description box, but not products.
