I made this easy by using the exact same saddle, and took these measurements to the new bike. Had to change the stem. Ive done 3000 kms now and haven't had to touch the new bike since set up. So IMHO as long as you can achieve these measurements on each frame, you could be happy on either. By the way, if you planning on serious miles, thoroughly recommend having your new bike fitted to you.
Good advice and definitely doing this.
