Rider Profile

Best ForThis is a beginner-friendly machine, well suited to new riders building confidence and skill.
PurposeDesigned as an entry-level sport-styled commuter, it favors light city riding and short spirited rides over serious performance.
Rider FitIts low seat height and light dry weight make it easy to manage for riders of smaller stature or those still developing physical confidence on two wheels.
CharacterIt has sporty styling and a willing small-displacement single, but delivers modest, approachable performance rather than outright excitement.
Not Ideal ForThis is not the bike for experienced riders seeking highway power, long-distance touring comfort, or any serious off-road capability.

2013 Keeway RK III 200 Rider Ergonomics Assessment

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

Feet:

At 800mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with both feet flat on the 2013 Keeway RK III 200, with a cramped knee angle of around 70 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.
