Rider Profile

Best ForThis is a machine best suited to experienced riders who can manage a heavy, torque-laden, unconventional powertrain at low speed.
PurposeBuilt as a torque-rich, engineering-showcase naked bike that prioritizes low-RPM pulling power and diesel efficiency over outright agility.
Rider FitAt nearly 300kg dry with a low seat height, it demands strength at low speeds and in parking maneuvers despite feeling manageable once rolling.
CharacterA rare, mechanically fascinating cruiser-natured naked bike that rewards riders who enjoy massive torque delivery and unconventional engineering over high-rev thrills.
Not Ideal ForThis is not for riders seeking a light, flickable machine for tight cornering or any kind of offroad use.

2016 Neander Turbo-Diesel Rider Ergonomics Assessment

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

Feet:

At 650mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with both feet flat on the 2016 Neander Turbo-Diesel, with a relaxed knee angle of around 125 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.
