Rider Profile

Best ForThis is an easy, beginner-friendly moped-class scooter that suits new or returning riders with minimal experience, and note its 45 km/h top speed is well below typical full-size scooters.
PurposeDesigned purely for short urban hops, errands, and light commuting rather than any performance or long-distance riding.
Rider FitIts low seat height, light dry weight, and automatic CVT gearbox make it accessible to riders of nearly any size or strength, including smaller or less physically confident riders.
CharacterIt has a classic, retro Lambretta scooter charm with modern touches like LED lighting and an LCD display, appealing to style-conscious city riders rather than speed seekers.
Not Ideal ForIt is not suitable for highway riding, touring, carrying a passenger over distance, or anyone wanting real acceleration or power.

2024 Lambretta V50 Special Rider Ergonomics Assessment

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

Feet:

At 720mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with both feet flat on the 2024 Lambretta V50 Special, with a cramped knee angle of around 60 degrees and a forward-leaning 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.
