Rider Profile

Best ForThis is a moped-class scooter suited to complete beginners and learner riders, typically restricted to those with a basic moped licence rather than a full motorcycle license.
PurposeIt's built for short, low-speed urban hops like commuting to school or work and running local errands, not for any kind of serious road travel.
Rider FitThe low seat height and lightweight, compact chassis make it very easy and unintimidating for smaller or less experienced riders to handle and manoeuvre.
CharacterA quirky, small-displacement German commuter scooter with sporty styling cues like a wave disc brakes and sports exhaust, but ultimately a practical, unassuming runabout.
Not Ideal ForThis is not for anyone wanting real speed, highway capability, off-road use, or two-up touring, as its 45 km/h top speed limits it strictly to local, low-speed riding.

2013 Kreidler Galactica 2.0 50 DD Rider Ergonomics Assessment

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

Feet:

At 820mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with balls of both feet on the 2013 Kreidler Galactica 2.0 50 DD, with a moderate knee angle of around 105 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). 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.
