Rider Profile

Best ForIdeal for absolute beginners and licence-restricted young riders; the twist-and-go automatic and light weight make it approachable for anyone.
PurposeShort-hop urban commuting and errands. Built to nip through city traffic, park easily and sip fuel, not for highways or long journeys.
Rider FitVery light at 95 kg with a low 775 mm seat and slim body. Upright, feet-forward step-through posture that's easy for all sizes to manage.
CharacterA frugal, cheerful little two-stroke scooter. Peppy off the line for its class, nimble and utterly unintimidating, with the large-ish front wheel adding stability.
Not Ideal ForAnyone needing highway speed, long-distance comfort, spirited cornering or off-road use. Its ~45 km/h pace and tiny engine suit town only.

2008 Piaggio Liberty 50 2T Rider Ergonomics Assessment

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

Feet:

At 775mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with both feet flat on the 2008 Piaggio Liberty 50 2T, with a moderate knee angle of around 100 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.
