Rider Profile

Best ForSuitable for beginners and learner riders, including those on a moped or restricted license, given the 49cc capacity.
PurposeDesigned purely as a small-capacity urban commuter scooter for short trips around town.
Rider FitVery light and low-effort to handle, with an automatic transmission that makes it easy for riders of almost any size or strength.
CharacterA fun, sporty-styled 50cc scooter with aggressive graphics that offers zippy, nimble city runabout character rather than genuine performance.
Not Ideal ForNot suitable for highway riding, long-distance touring, carrying a passenger comfortably, or any off-road use.

2009 Malaguti Phantom F12R Tribal Rider Ergonomics Assessment

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

Feet:

At 830mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with balls of both feet on the 2009 Malaguti Phantom F12R Tribal, with a moderate knee angle of around 105 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.
