I'm 6' and like 150lbs and I totally prefer my 20.75" bike to my 21" bike. Both have the same length chain on short chainstays. Around 12.9. If I was heavier I would look for a 13.25ish backend, but I think for me a 20.75" toptube is ideal.
As a 5’-7” fella, I understand I should’ve ideally gotten a 20.5” top tube. After watching your video, it looks like there’s some wiggle room. Does the same apply for me to vary by 0.25”? 20.25 for more responsive and 20.75 for more stability? Or is the variance less tight for shorter riders?
That quarter inch makes a huge difference. I'm 5'5" and I ride two bikes. 20.75" and 20.5". I like the 20.75" to cruise around and I like the 20.5" for doing tricks. It just feels more right and the 20.75" feels heavier and doesn't respond the same.
Audio recording is heavily biased towards the left, make sure to get those levels balanced out for future videos, its very apparent for the headphone listeners. Seems to only be an issue with the setup in that room, depending on the style of mic it could just be a matter of repositioning the mic.
I’m listening to this with my beats on and I did notice this aswell

21” toptube - idk your budget but the kink whip XL is affordable in that size, the wtp crisis is a step in quality, the Sunday ex has a 21” option and it’s pretty good
