We've got the Bullet GPs In Stock:

For those who haven't heard about them yet, they are Bit Char-G Motorcycles! They even have a working rear LED, and they last up to 8 minutes on a single charge!

They stay up via some tiny wheels hidden under the main section. They are really fun to drive. The rear wheel really drives it, and the front wheel really steers. They are In Stock now btw. Here's a pic comparing w/ a BC-G:

Oh, and the coolest thing is the lack of traction that the rear wheel gives, it's basically constant drift on low-grip surfaces, they are way more fun to drive than BC-Gs! It is possible to get good grip on paper/carbboard surfaces however, which lets you get to top speed a lot more easily, but makes turning more difficult as it's very easy to traction roll.

does it take regular bit motors like 3.0s? if so that thing must fly.

I haven't cracked one open yet, but I assume so; they are already very fast out of the box!

I wouldn't count on it, but that would be very cool!

sorry for all the questions, but my friend and i race bit char-gs and these motorcycles might take it to the next level. i look forward to ordering from here since the sigmaautomotive people were not very helpful, and my local hobby shop has never even heard of bits. anyway thanks :p

No problem! Yes, Sigma are a bit lacking in the customer service department, and their prices are extremely high; we contacted them about dealer pricing, and their dealer price was higher than our retail price!
