GT Gutterball Sizing

I'm thinking of buying a GT Gutterball but I can't decide between the L and XL sizes. Unfortunately no bike shops near me have the bike in stock so I can't test the sizes. If you ride a Gutterball and have either a L or XL frame can you tell me your height, whether your "length" is in your legs or torso/arms and how you think the bike fits? I'm about 6' 1" and while I ride a 58cm road bike (with a 58cm top tube and 73.5 degree seat tube), I have relatively short arms/torso and most of my "length" is in my legs. Thus, I'm concerned about the reach on the XL Gutterball because of the steeper seat tube.

Also, general impressions of the bike would be great.

I'd say go for "Large" if you ride a 58cm.
