Rider Profile

Best ForThis scooter is ideal for beginners or new riders who want a simple, low-stakes introduction to two wheels.
PurposeIt's built for short urban hops, errands, and commuting rather than any kind of performance riding.
Rider FitIts low seat height and light dry weight make it easy to handle for riders of almost any size or strength.
CharacterIt has a friendly, unintimidating character suited to relaxed, low-speed city cruising rather than thrills.
Not Ideal ForIt's not suited for highway travel, long-distance touring, carrying a passenger comfortably, or anyone seeking speed and power.

2020 Lifan CT-Ray Rider Ergonomics Assessment

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

Feet:

At 730mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with both feet flat on the 2020 Lifan CT-Ray, with a moderate knee angle of around 90 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.
