Is the 60cm too big then? If you hover on the edge a smaller frame might be better or a new fork with a taller steer tube. All the larger size LHT's have the same length steer tube 56,58,60,62 no difference. Sell or trade your 60cm for a used or new frame that is your correct size with an uncut steer tube......or buy a Rivendell and use a quill stem for more adjustability.
