Skyrider

A Skyrider used on Mars.

Captain Scarlet riding a Skyrider between buildings.

The Skyrider is a versatile, short-range sky bike that can be used to carry one person, whether they are on Earth or in other locations, such as Mars.


The Mark III model features low emission, dual-fuel engines which makes it efficient and more difficult to trace.


Its small size makes it extremely maneuverable and the rider can easily zip around obstacles such as the tight setting full of skyscrapers in New York City. It is controlled much like a standard motorcycle, using the rider’s weight to help it negotiate tight turns.

Blue with Skyrider

Its high-precision laser cannon can do some serious damage to an enemy or buildings - don’t let its small size fool you! The chassis is sturdy enough to withstand heavy impacts and will protect the rider should an accident occur.
