Rider FitThe low seat height and light dry weight make it very approachable for shorter or less physically confident riders.
CharacterIt has a classic small-cruiser character, prioritizing easy handling and a laid-back riding position over outright power.
Not Ideal ForThis bike is not for riders seeking highway-speed touring, aggressive cornering, or any off-road capability.

2020 Lifan Custom V250 Rider Ergonomics Assessment

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

Feet:

At 670mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with both feet flat on the 2020 Lifan Custom V250, with a cramped knee angle of around 70 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.
