Useful dimension ratios

Seat height feel

About 30.7 in — a lower-than-typical seat height. This is a geometry comparison, not a guarantee of rider fit.

Wheelbase / length

66% 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 28 in (711 mm) combined beyond the axle-to-axle distance.

Bounding-box footprint

About 16.4 sq ft (1.52 m²), calculated from listed overall length × width. Useful for rough storage planning.

Clearance / wheelbase

11.6%. A simple ratio showing listed ground clearance relative to wheelbase.
