Rider Profile

Best ForWell suited to newer riders or returning riders who want a light, manageable classic-styled bike rather than outright performance.
PurposeDesigned for stylish retro commuting and leisurely weekend rides rather than speed or long-distance touring.
Rider FitIts low seat height and light dry weight make it easy to handle for riders of most sizes, including shorter or less experienced riders.
CharacterA charming, retro-themed single-cylinder machine that trades outright performance for character, style, and nimble low-speed handling.
Not Ideal ForNot a good fit for riders seeking high-speed touring, off-road capability, or passenger comfort over longer distances.

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

Feet:

At 775mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with both feet flat on the 2019 FB Mondial Pagani 1948, 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.
