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

Rider fit: reaching the ground

The Kreidler Flory 50 Classic has a 820 mm seat; the Yamaha Y15ZR sits at 845 mm — a 25 mm difference. As a rule of thumb you flat-foot a bike when your inseam roughly matches its seat height: about 82 cm for the Kreidler Flory 50 Classic and 85 cm for the Yamaha Y15ZR.

That makes the Kreidler Flory 50 Classic the easier reach to the ground — the safer pick for shorter riders or anyone who wants both feet planted at a stop — while the Yamaha Y15ZR 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.
