Rider Profile

Best ForThis is a friendly, non-intimidating machine well suited to new riders or anyone stepping up from a scooter or smaller learner bike.
PurposeBuilt as a lightweight cafe-styled naked, it's meant for zipping through city streets and light weekend fun rather than serious speed or distance.
Rider FitThe low 790mm seat height and compact, light dry weight of 110kg make it easy for shorter or less physically strong riders to manage confidently.
CharacterIt has an eager, nimble, cafe-racer personality with a raspy single-cylinder engine note and sharp handling thanks to its low weight and upside-down forks.
Not Ideal ForIt's not the right choice for riders wanting highway touring comfort, high-speed cruising, or any serious off-road capability.

2012 Derbi Mulhacen Cafe 125 Rider Ergonomics Assessment

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

Feet:

At 790mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with both feet flat on the 2012 Derbi Mulhacen Cafe 125, with a moderate knee angle of around 115 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.
