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.

Old frame

Anyone else prefer frames too small? More manoeuvrable etc

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?

I haven't no, I have short legs and a long torso. although I started with a 56sq moved to 55 and had what I thought at the time was perfect, now this one looks like a garden gate! I ride a 54cm tarmac as my proper bike and it fits like a dream.
