Rider Profile

Best ForThis is a moped-class machine best suited to absolute beginners, learners, or young riders taking their first steps on two wheels.
PurposeIt is designed for short, low-speed urban trips and basic commuting rather than any form of sporty or long-distance riding.
Rider FitIts low seat height and light dry weight make it very easy and unintimidating to handle for riders of almost any size or strength.
CharacterDespite its sporty styling and disc brakes at both ends, its heart is a mild 50cc single that prioritizes accessibility and control over performance.
Not Ideal ForIt is not suitable for experienced riders seeking speed, highway travel, passenger comfort, or off-road capability.

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

Feet:

At 800mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with both feet flat on the 2017 Sachs XTC-S 50, with a cramped knee angle of around 70 degrees and a forward-leaning riding position.

Data quality: estimated (wheelbase estimated from this category's typical bike, not this model's own spec). 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.
