Rider Profile

Best ForThis is a beginner-friendly machine, well suited to new riders building confidence and basic skills.
PurposeIt's designed as an entry-level sport-styled commuter rather than a genuine performance machine, with modest output and a low top speed.
Rider FitThe low seat height, light dry weight, and narrow build make it easy to manage for shorter or less experienced riders.
CharacterIt has a lightweight, small-displacement single-cylinder feel with sporty styling but tame, approachable delivery of power.
Not Ideal ForIt's not a good fit for experienced riders seeking real speed, extended highway touring, or off-road capability.

2017 Loncin GP250 Rider Ergonomics Assessment

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

Feet:

At 780mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with both feet flat on the 2017 Loncin GP250, with a cramped knee angle of around 70 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.
