Rider Profile

Best For	Best suited to riders with at least some off-road or supermoto experience, since the light weight and instant electric torque make it lively rather than forgiving.
Purpose	Built as a nimble supermoto-styled electric trainer and playbike for tight tarmac, parking-lot practice, and short mixed-surface fun rather than serious performance riding.
Rider Fit	Its extremely low 108 kg weight and tall 880 mm seat height favor confident, moderately fit riders who can manage a tall, flickable machine rather than absolute beginners needing low seat height.
Character	Playful, quiet, and instant-torque responsive, rewarding a smooth throttle hand and an appetite for flicking the bike around corners and curbs.
Not Ideal For	Not for riders wanting long-distance touring, sustained highway speeds, or passenger carrying, since range, top speed, and comfort are all limited by its compact electric supermoto design.

Units

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

Feet:

At 870mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with tip-toe one foot on the 2016 KTM Freeride E-SM, with a relaxed knee angle of around 135 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.
