Rider Profile

Best ForThis lightweight, low-power single-cylinder naked suits newer riders or those wanting a relaxed, low-stress ride rather than seasoned speed enthusiasts.
PurposeIts name says it all - this is a minimalist, understated naked bike built for casual street riding and light urban commuting rather than outright performance.
Rider FitA low 800mm seat height and light 135kg dry weight make it very approachable for shorter or less physically strong riders.
CharacterQuirky, boutique, and unapologetically modest in power, this bike has a charming single-cylinder character that rewards a relaxed riding style over aggressive throttle use.
Not Ideal ForThis is not the bike for riders seeking highway overtakes, long-distance touring comfort, or any serious off-road capability.

2008 CR&S Cr&s VUN Underpowerd 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 CR&S Cr&s VUN Underpowerd, 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.
