Rider Profile

Best ForBest suited to skilled trials and enduro riders who understand light, high-clearance machines rather than newcomers expecting a conventional motorcycle.
PurposeBuilt purely for technical off-road trials-style riding over obstacles, rocks, and tight terrain rather than speed or distance.
Rider FitExtremely light dry weight and tall seat height demand strong balance and standing-riding technique more than raw strength.
CharacterA featherweight, purpose-built trials-derived machine with premium suspension components favoring precision over performance numbers.
Not Ideal ForNot for riders wanting highway capability, passenger carrying, comfort, or long-distance touring.

2016 FX Bikes FX5 Titanium Rider Ergonomics Assessment

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

Feet:

At 812mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with both feet flat on the 2016 FX Bikes FX5 Titanium, with a cramped knee angle of around 70 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.
