- Endless customization: Swap parts, colors, and gear to build your dream bike.
- The Great Shift: Recover stolen legendary bike parts to complete a mystical cycling ritual that could save—or doom—Wheel World.
- Original soundtrack: Featuring a pulsing score from Italians Do It Better, perfect for cruising and crushing races alike.
