Rider Profile

Best ForThis is an exotic, low-volume machine best suited to seasoned riders who are comfortable with a light, brutally quick, and unconventional naked bike.
PurposeBuilt as a rolling piece of engineering art and a hard-charging canyon carver rather than a practical commuter or tourer.
Rider FitThe low seat height and light dry weight make it manageable at a standstill, but the aggressive power delivery demands strong core and arm control at speed.
CharacterA rare, sculptural carbon-fiber and billet-aluminum hot rod with massive torque from its big V-twin, rewarding confident, deliberate riding inputs.
Not Ideal ForNot suited for new riders, long-distance touring, passengers, or anyone seeking wind protection and everyday practicality.

2013 Confederate R135 Wraith Combat Rider Ergonomics Assessment

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

Feet:

At 775mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with both feet flat on the 2013 Confederate R135 Wraith Combat, with a relaxed knee angle of around 120 degrees and a forward-leaning riding position.

Data quality: estimated (wheelbase estimated from this category's typical bike, not this model's own spec). 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.
