This seems to be my issue. I have, in the past, been able to take a size larger frame and make it work with stem and seat post. That has changed now that I am 73, pushing 74, I have found that I am not comfortable on the frames I have. I believe I need to got get a good test ride on a smaller size and possibly a more upright seated position on the bike. My drop-bar days seem to be over, unfortunately.
