I'm excited to announce that thejdm is now updated to the latest phpbb 3.2 software. You may notice the site is now mobile friendly but with the upgrade comes some hiccups. theGarage, theGallery, theArcade are no longer supported. In due time the developers should be working to release the modifications to work on the new software. #LetsMakeForumsGreatAgain

Legacy was a 21" top tube w/ like a 13.75" rear. It's super long compared to my Live Wire. My FBM is like a 13.5" rear w/ a 20.5" top tube. Then I have an XL stem on it. Manuals so much nicer and snaps off of lips. That Legacy was really slow when riding trails.

I put two spacers under my stem, flipped it, and run Primo Mustaches.

my fbm is only a 20" 2 short for me. the 21" ed should be perfect with the 7.75 bars and short stem.

Edwin DeLaRosa signature model. Dent resistant ovalized downtube and chainstays, integrated headtube, "4Q Baked" heat-treated dropouts and chainstays, built-in seat clamp.

Chainstay: 13.75- 14.25"
BB Type: Mid
BB Height: 11.9"
Headtube Angle: 74.5°
Seattube Angle: 71°
Seatpost Size: 25.4mm
Dropout Size: 14mm
Weight: 5 lbs 3.2 oz

the ed is a 13.75 i dont remember what my fbm was but it was really short. wonder how this will manual and spin with a longer frame and longer back end that im used to? probly going to cun the back wheel as close to the front of the dropout as possible. but still trying to make up my mind if i should go with the 21" over the 20.25, 20.5, or 20.75

guess the only way to try it is to order it and put it together. :thumbup: ill get used to it.
