Rider Profile

Best ForThis scooter is ideal for beginners or anyone wanting simple, low-stress transportation with minimal learning curve.
PurposeIt's built for short urban commutes, running errands, and easy, economical daily transport rather than performance riding.
Rider FitIts low seat height and light weight make it very approachable for riders of smaller stature or those less confident with heavier machines.
CharacterA practical, no-nonsense small-wheel scooter that prioritizes fuel efficiency, maneuverability, and ease of use over speed or excitement.
Not Ideal ForThis is not the machine for highway touring, spirited cornering, passenger comfort over distance, or anyone seeking strong acceleration.

2021 Kymco Spade 150I Rider Ergonomics Assessment

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

Feet:

At 711mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with both feet flat on the 2021 Kymco Spade 150I, 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.
