Tall guy - which size?

I've pretty much decided to buy a Radon ZR Team 6.0, but I'm a little unsure about the frame-size.
These are my measurements: http://imgur.com/KaJREwI. When I use their (Radon) size calculator, it tells me that I should go with a 20" frame, but their e-mail support recommends 22". The bike in question is available in 20" and 22", no 21/.5".
I'm not able to try the bikes, as there's no Radon shop where I'm located, but I know that would be the right thing to do.

If you're at all unsure about sizing then mail order isn't a good idea.
Even with detailed measurements there's a fair amount of personal preference involved in getting the correct size.Transition Patrol - viewtopic.php?f=10017&t=130702350 -
As above. Height adjustment is no problem - you would probably fit fine on a 14 inch frame with the seat post all the way out. Reach is the main concern, and tis is why these height guides are very general. You are some 8cm taller than me - but we have the same leg measrements! I have quite short arms too, so just shows how things can vary, and overlap.0
