Rider Profile

Best ForBest suited to intermediate to experienced off-road riders comfortable with a light, punchy two-stroke enduro machine.
PurposeBuilt purely for trail riding, technical enduro sections, and playful off-road exploration rather than road use.
Rider FitIts very low dry weight and low seat height make it manageable for shorter or lighter riders, though standing and active riding is expected.
CharacterA light, agile, high-revving two-stroke that rewards aggressive throttle control and rider input on tight, technical terrain.
Not Ideal ForNot suitable for riders seeking a comfortable road bike, long-distance touring capability, or passenger carrying.

2015 Sherco 290 X-Ride Rider Ergonomics Assessment

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

Feet:

At 850mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with tip-toe one foot on the 2015 Sherco 290 X-Ride, 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.
