Rider Profile

Best ForThis bike suits new riders and learners who want a lightweight, non-intimidating machine to build skills and confidence on.
PurposeIt is designed as an affordable, easy-to-live-with commuter and around-town runabout rather than a performance or adventure machine.
Rider FitThe low seat height, light weight of around 126 kg, and narrow dimensions make it very manageable for shorter or less physically strong riders.
CharacterIt has a friendly, retro-styled, no-drama character focused on simplicity, low running costs, and easy maneuverability rather than outright speed.
Not Ideal ForIt is not for experienced riders seeking high speed, long-distance touring comfort, or serious off-road capability.

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

Feet:

At 755mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with both feet flat on the 2023 Orcal NK01 125, with a moderate knee angle of around 110 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.
