Rider Profile

Best ForThis is an ideal machine for beginners or new riders who want a low-stakes, non-intimidating introduction to two wheels.
PurposeBuilt purely for short-hop urban commuting and casual fun riding rather than any kind of performance or distance work.
Rider FitIts light dry weight and low seat height make it very approachable for smaller or less experienced riders to handle confidently.
CharacterA quirky, playful minibike with a fun, toy-like personality that prioritizes charm and simplicity over speed or refinement.
Not Ideal ForThis is not the bike for anyone wanting highway speeds, long-distance touring, or a serious daily passenger-carrying setup.

2011 Sachs MadAss 50 Rider Ergonomics Assessment

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

Feet:

At 835mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with balls of both feet on the 2011 Sachs MadAss 50, with a moderate knee angle of around 105 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.
