If memory serves me well the ETT on the GT frames are pretty generous. I think the Small GT Peace has something like a 23 or 23.5" ETT or thereabouts. If that works for you at 5'10" tall you should be golden.

So, I got out both days over the weekend on the Peace. Really enjoyed riding this bike. I have a C'dale Flash 29 that I use as a race bike and wanted a trainer/backup bike.
Contrary to my prior post, there is a little toe overlap, but I'm not too worried. I thought maybe I could install 170mm cranks, but they're already on the small frame. Swapped out the stock 25.4mm Easton bars/Oury grips for wider 31.8mm Control Tech/Ergon setup. The Easton seemed narrow and the stem is a 31.8 with a plastic shim.
One day ran tires at 28/30psi F/R and 26/28 the next. The lower pressure was much better. Will eventually replace the brakes and the seatpost needs to go. Flexes alot under my 240lbs.
Gonna have fun on this bike.

I wear 45/46 shoes on a small but with platforms, I pretty much have to try to get a hit from overlap(came with 170 cranks, but I have 175s on my 9r multi, with no issue).
Crappy phone pic, gearing is too high for around here so next on the list.
