Rider Profile

Best ForThis bike suits beginner to intermediate riders thanks to its modest power and light, manageable weight.
PurposeIt's best suited as a light urban and leisure commuter with a scrambler-style aesthetic rather than a serious offroad or touring machine.
Rider FitThe low seat height and low overall weight make it accessible to riders of smaller stature or less physical strength.
CharacterIt has a simple, classic single-cylinder character with relaxed, easygoing power delivery rather than outright performance.
Not Ideal ForIt's not for riders seeking high-speed touring, serious off-road capability, or aggressive sport riding.

2017 Mash Custom 400 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 Mash Custom 400, with a cramped knee angle of around 65 degrees and a slightly forward riding position.

Data quality: estimated (wheelbase estimated from this category's typical bike, not this model's own spec). 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.
