The two bikes are close enough that posture preference matters more than the overall score.

Rider fit: reaching the ground

The Aprilia Sportcity 250 has a 813 mm seat; the Piaggio Beverly 400 sits at 821 mm — a 8 mm difference. As a rule of thumb you flat-foot a bike when your inseam roughly matches its seat height: about 81 cm for the Aprilia Sportcity 250 and 82 cm for the Piaggio Beverly 400.

That makes the Aprilia Sportcity 250 the easier reach to the ground — the safer pick for shorter riders or anyone who wants both feet planted at a stop — while the Piaggio Beverly 400 gives taller riders more legroom and a more open knee bend. Load your own height and inseam into the simulator to see exactly how each one fits you.
