PurposeBuilt as a nimble, fuel-sipping urban commuter for short hops through traffic rather than any performance or adventure role.
Rider FitIts low seat height and light dry weight make it very manageable for riders of smaller stature or those wanting an easy, low-effort ride.
CharacterA classic-styled, cheerful little runabout that favors charm, efficiency, and easy handling over speed or aggression.
Not Ideal ForNot suited to highway touring, two-up long distance riding, or anyone seeking real acceleration or off-road capability.

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 2018 Lambretta V125 Special Flex, 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.
