I'm 5'5" and I ride a Trek WSD 17" frame. However, that doesn't mean a lot because my husband is also 5'5" and we are proportioned completely differently. He has short legs, long torso, long arms. If he biked I'm sure he would not be comfortable on my bike.

I agree you should keep working with your bike shop, ask if there's any geometry differences between the frames. Bike fit is mostly about the bike and the rest is about tweaking saddle height, saddle tilt, moving the saddle back and forth along its rails to be closer or further from the handlebar. It can take a long time to get it dialed in just right for you. It helps to get a multitool and learn how to make these adjustments yourself, especially if you're restricted to that bike shop's weekend hours. They are pretty simple adjustments to make.

Good luck!
