You will want to buy nicer components than Tiagra for the 5000 frame, though.
Just make sure it fits. Did I say that you need to make sure it fits?

But I understand what they are trying to say...but he did not ride the farme on the 5000 to five Tour wins.
Sorry.

An unbiased opinion would come from someone not making money out of the thing they are commenting on.
