Rider Profile

Best ForThis is an approachable machine best suited to beginners or riders returning to biking after a break.
PurposeDesigned as a low-displacement custom-styled cruiser for relaxed commuting and short leisure rides rather than outright performance.
Rider FitThe low 730mm seat height and modest 134kg dry weight make it easy to manage for shorter or less experienced riders.
CharacterIt offers laid-back cruiser styling with saddlebags and a classic stance, prioritizing look and ease of use over speed or agility.
Not Ideal ForIt is not suited to highway touring, spirited cornering, off-road use, or riders seeking strong acceleration and power.

2017 Keeway Superlight 125 LTD Rider Ergonomics Assessment

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

Feet:

At 730mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with both feet flat on the 2017 Keeway Superlight 125 LTD, 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.
