PurposeDesigned as a lightweight urban commuter scooter for short trips and city errands rather than performance or long-distance riding.
Rider FitVery light weight and a low, accessible seat height make it easy to handle for smaller or less experienced riders.
CharacterA simple, nimble Spanish 50cc scooter with automatic transmission, built for easy, low-stress city riding.
Not Ideal ForNot suitable for highway speeds, long touring distances, carrying a passenger comfortably, or any off-road use.

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

Feet:

At 810mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with both feet flat on the 2017 Rieju RS NKD, 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.
