Indecisions on frame, tires, bars

I've searched in here but haven't seen this all covered, so here goes if anyone has test ridden a bunch...

  1. Top frame size: I'm 5'8" on the nose. Some specs say 5'5" to 6'8" for the large frame, but others say 5'8" to 6'8". I am the tallest person in my household. Their advice says size down if you're unsure. I guess this means small! What are y'all doing?

  2. Ride package: Seems if I ever want to use trail mode, I must go all terrain. I guess that's settled, but I'll be 90% on road..how rough/annoying do the knobby tires feel on-road?

  3. Cockpit: I won't be going wild on trails but will be exercising. I have some back issues. Seems Standard is a better play.

Frame and tires can be switched later. Bars, less so?

I welcome any advice or wargaming as we get ready to rush the site in a few days...
