I'm tall as you but it was the opposite for me, I used to ride a 54cms square frame, and realized that it was too small. Now I ride 56cms frames and finally feel good.
Have you calculated with the inseam and upper body lengths? -
theres still a cm of slammage to win. plus if you get some giro ditalia style drops youll win a bit in drop. i recommend some levers too; to get a nice extra position.
same here; 5'10", ride 54 ct and 54 tt with compact drops. winter beater will be bit more upright with 55ct and 55 tt.

Really struggling to enjoy my new frame, it's a 54sq and at 5'10" is technically perfect for me but I've gotten used to riding a frame with a much smaller St and Ht.
I have 175mm cranks on now, which won't be helping. Thinking of selling up and buying a nicer 53sq frame.

Anyone else prefer frames too small? More manoeuvrable etc
