Rider Profile

Best ForThis depowered single-cylinder naked suits newer riders or those on a restricted license who still want a light, characterful machine.
PurposeIt's built for around-town riding and twisty backroads where its low weight and single-cylinder torque matter more than outright speed.
Rider FitThe low 800mm seat height and 135kg dry weight make it very manageable for shorter or less experienced riders.
CharacterIt has the soulful, low-revving thump of a big single wrapped in a minimalist, boutique-styled naked bike chassis.
Not Ideal ForIt's not the right choice for riders wanting high-speed touring, passenger comfort, or serious highway performance.

2009 CR&S Cr&s VUN Road Depowered 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 2009 CR&S Cr&s VUN Road Depowered, 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.
