Aha I'm about 6ft too and have gone for a 56cm Crosscheck frame!
The steamroller is ok, comfortably upright around town and I can stretch out on drop bars for a road ride, but the worst thing is about 1" overlap when using SPDs (size 12 feet) plus both the stack of spacers and the saddle height tend to confirm the frame is a bit small for me really! I guess I know what you mean by being a bit exposed... the Guess fork is shorter than the Surly one, which lowers the front end even more...
Price would prob be a bit lower than the usual 125ish that steamroller f&f seem to go for... The wrong fork! 110? Or could split and offer the frame for 90?
