Rider Profile

Best ForThis is an ideal machine for beginners, learners, or anyone with a basic moped license, requiring minimal prior riding skill.
PurposeBuilt purely for short-distance urban commuting and running errands around town, not for speed or distance.
Rider FitIts low seat height and light 100kg weight make it very easy to handle and manage for riders of nearly any size or strength.
CharacterA practical, unassuming, and economical little scooter whose character is defined by convenience and fuel efficiency rather than excitement.
Not Ideal ForThis is not suited for riders seeking highway travel, high speed, passenger comfort over distance, or any kind of touring or off-road use.

2012 Peugeot Tweet 50 Rider Ergonomics Assessment

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

Feet:

At 800mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with both feet flat on the 2012 Peugeot Tweet 50, with a moderate knee angle of around 100 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.
