Rider Profile

Best ForThis machine suits an experienced rider comfortable with a long, heavy, low-slung custom chopper that demands deliberate, confident inputs.
PurposeIt's built primarily for boulevard cruising and show-worthy presence rather than outright speed or long-distance touring.
Rider FitThe extreme 40-degree rake, long 88-inch wheelbase, and 700-pound dry weight mean slow-speed maneuvers and U-turns require real physical effort and confidence.
CharacterBig V-twin torque, a stretched hardtail-look silhouette, and deep custom paint options give this bike a bold, laid-back outlaw persona.
Not Ideal ForThis is not the right choice for beginners, off-road use, tight canyon carving, or riders prioritizing agility and quick direction changes.

2009 Big Bear Choppers Sled 100 Carb 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 Sled 100 Carb, 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.
