At 6'3", i'm not AS tall (i've been scraping along on a Large Reign 2015, which is too small though), but i too feel the pain, mainly due to the slack seat tubes (actual values, not effective, virtual values). Currently looking at what's on offer, i'm fairly certain i'll be springing for an XL Bird Aeris 145 (likely in the fresh LT guise), which is also a very long, slack bike when it comes to the front end, yet has a very steep (actual angle) seat tube. Compared to the Geometron and the Poles it is shorter and not as slack, but it's still out there :)
EDIT: should have replied Cr4w with this, didn't realize the replies are multilevel :/
