Default Neck radius of Composite Acoustic Legacy

Does anyone know the fretboard radius of CA legacy, I assume it is the same as a Taylor which I believe is 15?

Composite Acoustics says the fretboard radius of CA guitars is 14 inches. If I am not mistaken the other majors are Martin 16, Gibson 12, Taylor 15. Looks like CA is a little more curvy than Taylor. I put a Taylor tusq saddle on my new Legacy and it was much more curved than the graphite CA saddle. You would think that the saddle would match the radius.
