Hi Will,

I was in exactly the same situation as you, 82PBH and I think they stated 
83 as the minimum for the 55 Sam (I think the sizing has changed a bit now 
so not sure if it will make a difference). I ended up up going with the 
larger model (55 over 51), although it does feel a little taller than my 
other bikes, its totally rideable and enabled me to reuse a 700c wheel set 
I had around so win win! I do ride with set back bars so I guess it might 
be a different story with drops as it would be a fair reach.

I guess if you can try both of them it would be ideal....I know its not 
always that easy.

Dom
