Rider Profile

Best ForBest suited to experienced riders who are comfortable managing a long, heavy, low-slung custom chopper with a wide rear tire and stretched-out geometry.
PurposeBuilt for boulevard cruising and making a visual statement rather than for spirited riding or long-distance touring efficiency.
Rider FitThe low seat height is approachable for shorter riders, but the substantial dry weight and long wheelbase demand upper-body strength and confidence at parking-lot speeds.
CharacterA big-inch, torque-heavy V-twin custom with radical rake and a fat rear tire, delivering strong straight-line thrust and a bold, laid-back attitude over outright handling precision.
Not Ideal ForNot a good fit for riders seeking nimble cornering, off-road capability, or a lightweight, flickable machine for tight urban streets.

2015 Big Bear Choppers Bear Bones 111 Smooth EFI Rider Ergonomics Assessment

Calculated in your browser only - your height/inseam are never sent to our servers.

Feet:

At 584mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with both feet flat on the 2015 Big Bear Choppers Bear Bones 111 Smooth EFI, with a cramped knee angle of around 70 degrees and a slightly forward riding position.

Data quality: measured. Assumes about 30mm of suspension sag once seated (a typical street-bike rule of thumb - stiffer or softer suspension will vary). This is an approximation from category-typical geometry and generic body proportions, not a measurement of this specific bike or you - sit on it before you buy.
