Rider FitThe low seat height and manageable weight make it accessible to riders of most sizes and shorter inseams.
CharacterA laid-back single-cylinder cruiser that favors easygoing, low-stress riding over speed or sportiness.
Not Ideal ForNot a good fit for riders seeking high-speed touring, aggressive cornering, or off-road capability.

2016 Daelim Daystar 250 Rider Ergonomics Assessment

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

Feet:

At 720mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with both feet flat on the 2016 Daelim Daystar 250, with a cramped knee angle of around 80 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.
