Rider Profile

Best ForBest suited to riders with genuine off-road or trials experience, as the tall seat, light weight, and lack of low-end flywheel forgiveness reward skill over confidence alone.
PurposeBuilt purely for technical trials riding and extreme off-road terrain rather than any form of road transport.
Rider FitIts ultra-light dry weight makes it easy to muscle over obstacles, but the tall 930mm seat height demands good leg length and balance.
CharacterA featherweight, high-revving two-stroke trials tool that thrives on precision throttle control and momentum over rocks, roots, and steep climbs.
Not Ideal ForNot for riders wanting a comfortable, fast, or practical machine for road use, touring, or carrying a passenger.

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

Feet:

At 930mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with cannot reach comfortably on the 2004 GAS GAS Pampera 280, 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.
