Rider Profile

Best ForThis is a boutique, high-torque V-twin power cruiser-fighter hybrid best suited to experienced riders comfortable with a big, low-slung, unconventional machine.
PurposeBuilt as a low-volume art-and-engineering statement, it excels at aggressive, torque-driven street riding and boulevard presence rather than outright lap times.
Rider FitThe low 686mm seat height and 195kg dry weight keep it manageable at a stop, but the wide 240-section rear tyre and unconventional girder front end demand deliberate, confident inputs.
CharacterA raw, mechanical, exotic machine with a massive air-cooled-feel V2, exposed titanium framework, and belt drive that rewards riders who want to be seen and felt on the road.
Not Ideal ForThis is not the bike for a new rider, a daily commuter seeking practicality, or anyone planning long-distance touring or two-up passenger comfort.

2009 Confederate C120 Renaissance Fighter Rider Ergonomics Assessment

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

Feet:

At 686mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with both feet flat on the 2009 Confederate C120 Renaissance Fighter, with a cramped knee angle of around 60 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.
