Rider Profile

Best For	This is a specialist supermono best suited to experienced riders comfortable with a light, punchy, single-cylinder machine that demands active input.
Purpose	Built as a lightweight street-legal track and canyon tool, it prioritizes razor-sharp handling over outright power or practicality.
Rider Fit	The tall 810mm seat height, minimal fuel range, and firm sporty ergonomics favor taller, fitter riders who don't mind a compact, aggressive riding position.
Character	It's a raw, vibrating, characterful big-single that rewards precise throttle and body-position skills with go-kart-like agility and feedback.
Not Ideal For	This is not the right bike for riders seeking long-distance comfort, passenger accommodation, off-road capability, or a smooth, low-maintenance daily commuter.

Units

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

Feet:

At 810mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with both feet flat on the 2001 Borile B 500 CR, with a relaxed knee angle of around 120 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.
