Sizing Question...
I'm 5'10 and my inseam(measured against a wall with a tape measure) is a bit north of 29''.
What size frame would be appropriate for me on an entry level SS/fixie road bike?(Kilo, Moto Track, windsor Hour, etc)
Thanks.

Why not try contacting Bikes direct and asking them? We are not their customer service dept.

Are you sure that is your inseam (crotch to floor in bare feet)? It seems very small for your height. I'm only 5'3" and my inseam is 28".

I must be all torso, maybe thats why I suck at distance running

What you want is a frame that has a long top tube relative to the seat tube length. The Kilo TT is just the opposite with a very short top tube for any given seat tube length, so it's probably not a good choice for someone like you. For example, a Windsor Clockwork has a longer top tube and will better fit someone like you.
