Rider Profile

Best ForThis is a moped-class scooter suited to complete beginners or those who just want simple, low-stakes transport, with no advanced riding skill required or rewarded.
PurposeBuilt for short urban hops and running errands at low speed, not for any kind of performance riding.
Rider FitVery light and low-powered, so it is easy to handle, balance at a stop, and maneuver for riders of almost any size or strength.
CharacterA humble, unassuming 50cc two-stroke runabout with modest classic-scooter charm rather than any sporting pretension.
Not Ideal ForNot for highway travel, touring, carrying a passenger any real distance, or anyone wanting a thrilling or fast ride.

Character map is an editorial estimate based on this bike's specifications, not a lab-tested measurement.

2012 MZ Max 50 2T Rider Ergonomics Assessment

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

Feet:

At 800mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with both feet flat on the 2012 MZ Max 50 2T, 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.
