just took delivery of a size 53 fuji. my other bike is a 56.5. both fit perfectly.
i'm 6ft 1 but my shorter (and fatter) flatmate needs 585mm top tubes as his arms are 4cm longer than mine.
go to a proper shop and ask somebody who know's what they are on about.
failing that take measurements and use an online calculator but these don't account for flexibility.
anecdotal sizing evidence is worthless.
