Rider Profile

Best For	Suited to new or casual riders, including those transitioning from a bicycle or public transport, given the low torque figure and small-scooter dimensions typical of an electric city scooter like the Neos.
Purpose	Designed primarily as an efficient, easy-to-use urban commuter scooter for short hops through city traffic rather than performance riding.
Rider Fit	The low seat height and compact, lightweight scooter proportions make it accessible to shorter riders and easy to handle at a stop.
Character	A practical, unintimidating runabout that prioritizes convenience and maneuverability over speed or excitement.
Not Ideal For	Not a good fit for riders seeking highway touring capability, off-road use, or high-speed thrills.

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 2016 Yamaha Neos, with a moderate knee angle of around 100 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.
