Rider Profile

Best ForSuitable for riders with at least some scooter or automatic-transmission experience, though its size and weight make it manageable for intermediate riders rather than absolute beginners.
PurposeDesigned as a maxi-scooter for comfortable urban commuting with the added ability to handle longer trips on highways.
Rider FitA seat height of around 784 mm combined with a 216 kg dry weight means shorter or less experienced riders may find it a handful at low speeds or when maneuvering off the stand.
CharacterA refined, shaft-driven maxi-scooter that favors smooth, torquey delivery and stability over outright sportiness, with adjustable rear suspension adding a touring-friendly edge.
Not Ideal ForNot a good fit for riders seeking sharp performance, off-road capability, or a lightweight, flickable ride.

2010 Peugeot Satelis 500 RS Rider Ergonomics Assessment

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

Feet:

At 784mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with both feet flat on the 2010 Peugeot Satelis 500 RS, 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.
