The 58" fits me perfect and after transitioning from a bike that was too big would really be concerned on riding too large a bike.

I think the geometry of the SLR-02 and SLR-01 vary slightly and don't know if designs have changed meaningfully as far as fit in with later models.

At 6'-3/4" you likely need a large bike than me, it may be that your in between sizes though, but my experience would tend to suggest too small is better than too large.
maybe but I did feel some craning in my neck - and this is with the stem fully raised and rotated 3 cmm up
