Best ForThis is an entry-level moped ideal for new riders or those with only a basic moped license, requiring minimal riding experience.
PurposeDesigned purely for short, low-speed urban trips like commuting to school, work, or running local errands.
Rider FitIts light weight and low seat height make it very easy to handle for riders of almost any size or strength, including smaller teenage riders.
CharacterA practical, unassuming little runabout that favors simplicity, low running costs, and easy maneuverability over any kind of excitement.
Not Ideal ForThis is not suitable for riders wanting highway travel, long-distance touring, carrying a passenger comfortably, or any real performance.

2012 Kreidler Jigger 50 City Rider Ergonomics Assessment

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

Feet:

At 750mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with both feet flat on the 2012 Kreidler Jigger 50 City, with a moderate knee angle of around 95 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.
