Down to a 38cm frame!

I'm helping a friend source a new (or possibly) used bike to replicate my
own Riv custom which has a 50cm seat tube and a 50 cm top tube. My bike,
originally a rando rig, is now set up with porteur bars, inverse levers,
wider brooks saddle, honjos and 38c grand bois tires. It's such a fun bike
to ride. In my friends words, the bike changed her life, or at least,
attitude about bike fit and comfort. My friend and I are both 5'3 and ride
bikes in the 48cm to 50 cm range.
I've been shopping around for a stock 650b frame for her that could be built
up into an upright, go fast, weekender bike. We're in the Surly/Soma budget
when it comes to the frame. Sadly, most of these bikes seems to be made for
700c wheels or have extra long top tubes (even for bikes that are 47cm).
Send me your frame suggestions. Right now, our target is the Soma San
Marcos which I believe takes 650b in smaller sizes. We're working with a
terrific shop in Brooklyn. I just wanted to solicit the group for any extra
knowledge of stock frames that we might also want to evaluate.
