Rider Profile

Best ForThis bike suits newer riders or those moving up from smaller commuters who want a sporty feel without intimidating power.
PurposeIt's built for light sport riding and everyday commuting rather than outright performance or long-distance touring.
Rider FitThe moderate seat height and manageable dry weight make it accessible to riders of average or smaller stature.
CharacterIt has a sporty, single-cylinder character with a willing top-end rev but modest low-down torque, encouraging an engaged riding style.
Not Ideal ForIt's not the right choice for riders seeking high-speed touring capability, off-road use, or serious two-up long-distance comfort.

2017 Daelim RoadSport 250 Rider Ergonomics Assessment

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

Feet:

At 780mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with both feet flat on the 2017 Daelim RoadSport 250, with a cramped knee angle of around 70 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.
