At 780mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with both feet flat on the 2014 Hartford HD-125L, with a moderate knee angle of around 110 degrees and a slightly forward 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).
