Rider Profile

Best For	Well suited to beginner and early-intermediate riders who want a lively, easy-to-manage commuter-sport bike.
Purpose	Designed for spirited city and short suburban rides rather than outright speed or long-distance touring.
Rider Fit	Light weight and low seat height make it accessible and easy to handle for most rider sizes.
Character	A nimble, budget-friendly street sport bike that rewards revvy, playful riding over raw power.
Not Ideal For	Not a good fit for riders seeking highway touring comfort, high-speed performance, or off-road capability.

Units

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

Feet:

At 790mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with both feet flat on the 2012 TVS Apache RTR 180 ABS, with a cramped knee angle of around 70 degrees and a forward-leaning 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.
