Rider Profile

Best ForThis is a beginner-level electric minibike built specifically for children learning basic off-road riding skills.
PurposeDesigned for supervised backyard or trail play at low speeds rather than any serious off-road adventuring or transportation.
Rider FitIts extremely light 38 kg frame and low 860 mm seat height make it manageable for small, young riders with limited strength and experience.
CharacterA quiet, simple, electric-powered kids dirt bike with real suspension components that mimic full-size enduro bikes in miniature form.
Not Ideal ForThis is not suitable for adults, road use, touring, or anyone seeking real speed or performance.

2016 Kuberg Free-Rider Rider Ergonomics Assessment

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

Feet:

At 860mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with tip-toe one foot on the 2016 Kuberg Free-Rider, with a cramped knee angle of around 75 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.
