Rider Profile

Best ForThis is a machine for experienced, technically-minded riders who understand and appreciate its unconventional front-hub-center steering system.
PurposeBuilt as an exotic, low-volume Italian exercise in engineering, it exists to deliver razor-sharp cornering precision rather than outright top-speed bragging rights.
Rider FitThe low seat height and light dry weight make it manageable at a standstill, but the committed, naked-sportbike riding position demands reasonable fitness and flexibility.
CharacterA boutique, engineering-obsessed machine that rewards a deliberate, analytical riding style over brute-force aggression.
Not Ideal ForThis is not the bike for a new rider, a pillion-focused commuter, or anyone seeking long-distance touring comfort.

2019 Bimota Tesi 3D RaceCafe Rider Ergonomics Assessment

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

Feet:

At 780mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with both feet flat on the 2019 Bimota Tesi 3D RaceCafe, with a moderate knee angle of around 115 degrees and a forward-leaning 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.
