Rider Profile

Best ForThis is a bike best suited to experienced riders who are comfortable managing a long, heavy, radically-raked custom chopper at low speeds.
PurposeIt exists primarily as a boulevard and show-cruiser statement piece, built around styling, sound, and torque rather than outright performance or practicality.
Rider FitThe extreme 44-degree rake, 88-inch wheelbase, and 320 kg dry weight demand strong low-speed handling skills and deliberate, unhurried inputs, though the low 508 mm seat height keeps it approachable for shorter riders at a standstill.
CharacterExpect a laid-back, big-torque V-twin personality with a distinctive stretched silhouette, more about presence and rumble than agility or speed.
Not Ideal ForThis is not the right bike for riders wanting quick flickable handling, aggressive cornering ability, or any kind of off-road capability.

2009 Big Bear Choppers Paradox 114 EFI X-Wedge Rider Ergonomics Assessment

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

Feet:

At 508mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with both feet flat on the 2009 Big Bear Choppers Paradox 114 EFI X-Wedge, with a cramped knee angle of around 60 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.
