Rider Profile

Best ForSuited to riders from novice to intermediate who want a light, forgiving off-road bike to build skills on.
PurposeDesigned primarily for motocross and trail riding rather than road use or long-distance touring.
Rider FitIts low dry weight and low-ish seat height make it manageable for smaller or less physically strong riders.
CharacterA nimble, lightweight single-cylinder dirt bike that rewards agility and technical skill over outright power.
Not Ideal ForNot a good fit for riders wanting high speed, passenger carrying, or comfortable long-distance road travel.

2008 CCM C-Xr230-M Rider Ergonomics Assessment

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

Feet:

At 800mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with both feet flat on the 2008 CCM C-Xr230-M, with a cramped knee angle of around 70 degrees and an upright 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.
