Looking for 21.5" chainstay

[SouthCoastBent]

I have an issue where the inside of my thigh, just above the knee, is rubbing against the brake caliper. I have the boom and slider adjusted for leg and arm length. I'm assuming the longer chainstay will give me the extra lift to the BB and eliminate the rubbing. Does anyone have a 21.5" for the V20 (2016ish model)?

Cruzbike warehouse manager here! We stock replacement forks, booms, sliders and chainstays (both through axle and quick release) for most of our models. The chainstays we have come in several different sizes. You can order a 21.5" or even a 23.5" quick release one for your 2016 V20. These are speciality order items not listed on the website. For this and other replacement parts, simply email us at support@cruzbike.com, let me know what you are looking for, and if we have it in stock I'll send you an invoice with a link to purchase the item(s). Happy riding!

Have you considered pedal extenders? That resolved the problem for me.

I hadn’t considered it. But, my BB is quite low to where I believe it should be. It’s about parallel with the bottom of the seat

I’m 5’10” and use the standard length chain stay.

I'm 6ft and use the 21.5" chainstay, you might want to go with the 23.5"

I'm 6'6" and I have the 21.5 for my s40. Just bought an older v20 and can't figure out if I should go with the 21.5 or the 23.5.

Dang - who knew there were so many tall Cruz-ers! I'm 6'5" - I have a 21.5 on my v20. Fits nice.

I still have quite a bit of bend in my leg when it is extended so I went with the 23.5. Hopefully not a mistake.
