Seat height feel

About 31.1 in — a seat height around the category middle. This is a geometry comparison, not a guarantee of rider fit.

Wheelbase / length

68% of overall length. This shows how much of the bike’s total length is axle-to-axle distance rather than overhang.

Length beyond wheelbase

About 26.6 in (675 mm) combined beyond the axle-to-axle distance.

Bounding-box footprint

About 17.3 sq ft (1.61 m²), calculated from listed overall length × width. Useful for rough storage planning.

Clearance / wheelbase

9.1%. A simple ratio showing listed ground clearance relative to wheelbase.
