Calfee makes a Luna Pro in size 66 - 88cm standover height. $1300 for
the frame without fork. You could probably salvage most of your Klein
parts, buy a few new components and a fork to get a full bike well under
$2500. Good guy to deal with, very popular frames around here, you'd
have to ask him about the tire sizes though.
