Rider Profile

PurposeDesigned as a large-wheel maxi-scooter for comfortable daily commuting with enough performance and storage for occasional weekend trips.
Rider FitThe 795mm seat height and 227kg wet weight make it manageable for most average-height riders, though its bulk requires some care at very low speeds and when parking.

Not Ideal ForNot a good fit for off-road enthusiasts or anyone seeking genuine sportbike-level speed and track cornering performance.

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

Feet:

At 795mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with both feet flat on the 2022 Sym SYM Maxsym TL 508, with a moderate knee angle of around 110 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.
