Rider Profile

Best ForThis is best suited to an experienced rider comfortable with a rigid rear end, minimal suspension travel, and low-speed handling quirks typical of hardtail custom choppers.
PurposeBuilt as a stylistic, boutique custom cruiser for cruising and showing off rather than for outright performance or distance covering.
Rider FitThe low 680mm seat height and solo seat make it accessible for shorter riders, but the rigid rear suspension demands a tolerance for harsh, jarring ride quality over bumps.
CharacterA radically styled Japanese-built hardtail chopper with a Harley-derived Evolution V-twin heart, prioritizing form, stance, and attitude over practicality.
Not Ideal ForThis is not for riders seeking touring comfort, passenger capability, off-road use, or a plush, forgiving ride.

2021 Road Hopper TYPE2I Rider Ergonomics Assessment

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

Feet:

At 680mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with both feet flat on the 2021 Road Hopper TYPE2I, with a cramped knee angle of around 75 degrees and an upright 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.
