Rider Profile

Best ForThis bike suits riders with at least some off-road or dirt-bike experience, given its tall seat height, light weight feel, and motocross-oriented handling.
PurposeIt is built primarily for off-road cross and motocross use rather than commuting, highway travel, or two-up riding.
Rider FitThe tall 970mm seat height and firm, long-travel suspension mean shorter or less confident riders may find it physically demanding to manage at a stop or on uneven terrain.
CharacterExpect a light, nimble, single-cylinder machine with modest power output that rewards aggressive body positioning and momentum-based riding over raw speed.
Not Ideal ForThis is not the right choice for riders seeking a comfortable long-distance tourer, a passenger-friendly bike, or strong straight-line highway performance.

2012 Mikilon D71-250 Rider Ergonomics Assessment

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

Feet:

At 970mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with cannot reach comfortably on the 2012 Mikilon D71-250, with a cramped knee angle of around 85 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.
