Longer cranks could help fix some of that, might be worth a try.
Well worth the ask here and would probably be easy enough to move along if it really didn't work out.
I would encourage you to take the leap and see if it can work, you know, just for fun.
It's the top tube length, not the seat tube that's getting long for me. Could I ride it? Sure, I have others that are long, but a 53 is where I like to be. Sure is a sweet bike, though.
