PurposeBuilt purely for competitive enduro and technical off-road riding, not for street use, commuting, or long-distance travel.
Rider FitThe tall 950mm seat height, 105kg dry weight, and long-travel suspension demand good rider fitness, leg length, and confidence standing on the pegs over rough terrain.
CharacterA raw, lightweight, high-revving two-stroke race weapon that rewards aggressive, skilled riders who enjoy attacking trails and technical obstacles.
Not Ideal ForNot suitable for new riders, daily commuters, passengers, or anyone wanting comfort, weather protection, or highway touring capability.

2023 Rieju E-City 1.2 Rider Ergonomics Assessment

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

Feet:

At 780mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with both feet flat on the 2023 Rieju E-City 1.2, 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.
