Hello Rory
Thanks for the frame enquiry. Our most popular tubing by far is the 725 which gives a sportier feel to the ride and closely followed by the 953 which is a very light tubing set. Both these options would be a good choice. Its the head tube angle and fork rake and top tube length which brings the wheel closer to you. The extended head tube is for the rider to sit a little more upright. We will do a drawing and send it to you before build so we could design the clearances for you. The white will look ok over the silver. We have a turn around time at the moment of about 5 months.
Thank you
Grant
