13.2 is slammed (all the way into the drop out)
13.44 is centered (middle of the drop out)
So depending on your gearing/chain length, the backend will have the ability to feel anywhere between 13.2 and around 13.6.

Since its a complete bike, im guessing the wheel is centered, so it rides as 13.44. But if you were to adjust it and run slammed, it would be 13.2.

Usually the rear end is measured by the chainstay to answer your question.

Hope that helps. Goodluck.
