Help a little guy out
This is my results from a fit calculator: https://docs.google.com/file/d/0B7XX...it?usp=sharing
I want this bike in 43 (only size left), will it fit?

I think it's too small. You'd end up going to a very long stem and a lot of up-angle to it, with a tall seat post. The front wheel might (can't say for sure) be too close to your pedals and result in toe overlap with the front wheel.
Online sales are good if you know what your size needs are. You don't, really, but the fit calculations you have are good indications. This bike is a lot smaller than any of the options you got from the calculator.
