that's a short top tube on that bike (~20" on the 18" frame). At 6'1" you'd probably want 22-23" top tube. You can adjust a bit with stem length and rise but 2" extra reach is probably too much.
I wouldn't recommend a layback seatpost.
As some others said, you need to look at the TT length more than the frame size. For instance, I've got a 16" frame with a 22.5" top tube.
