First off very nice build!
Thought i would pipe up on inline posts-
Isn't it femur vs inseam length that dictates post setback. Relatively short femurs and longer tibia may require an inline post for the same saddle height. An inline or setback post gets gets your knee over the pedal axle at the front of the stroke depending on the femur length and independent of frame geometry.
Messing with seat tube angle has knock on affects that can really ruin handling.
I have recently switched to an inline post on my recent build and wont look back.
