I would listen to Rivendell. I made the mistake of getting my first Rivendell on the small side against their recommendation. A couple of years later I ordered the larger frame and have been a whole lot happier with it. I blame it on me having a Fit Kit certification and 10 years experience selling bikes to people that were in all honestly too small for them in retrospect. I cringe every time I walk into a shop and see some 6 foot bloke being fitted on a 19 inch mtn bike or a 59 cm road bike.
I am pretty sure I recall an article by Maynard Hershon stating that he to should have gotten a larger bike.
