Rider Profile

Best ForThis 50cc moped-scooter is aimed squarely at beginners and learner-permit riders, often teenagers taking their first steps on two wheels.
PurposeIt's built for short, low-speed urban and suburban errands rather than any kind of performance or long-distance riding.
Rider FitIts low seat height and light dry weight make it very easy to handle and manage for smaller or less experienced riders.
CharacterIt's a simple, unpretentious, practical little runabout with modest performance and easy, forgiving manners.
Not Ideal ForThis is not the bike for riders wanting real speed, highway cruising, passenger comfort, or any off-road capability.

Character map is an editorial estimate based on this bike's specifications, not a lab-tested measurement.

2009 Kreidler RMC-E 50 Hiker Rider Ergonomics Assessment

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

Feet:

At 770mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with both feet flat on the 2009 Kreidler RMC-E 50 Hiker, with a moderate knee angle of around 100 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.
