Rider Profile

Best For	This is a small-displacement 50cc two-stroke enduro best suited to younger or novice riders learning off-road skills, though its tall 830mm seat height and full-size chassis demand reasonable rider confidence and leg length.
Purpose	Built for light trail riding, green-laning, and learning technical off-road technique rather than any speed or distance work.
Rider Fit	The low 100kg dry weight makes it easy to pick up and manhandle over obstacles, but the tall seat height and enduro riding position favor taller or more agile riders who can stand comfortably on the pegs.
Character	A lightweight, high-revving two-stroke minibike-for-adults feel, playful and flickable but with very limited outright power and no touring pretensions.
Not Ideal For	Not suitable for highway travel, two-up riding, long-distance touring, or riders seeking real straight-line performance.

Units

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

Feet:

At 790mm, a rider of 68.9" with a 31" (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with both feet flat on the 2009 Rieju Tango 50, with a cramped knee angle of around 65 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.
