How close to reality could your design be? 8)
The difference between fiction and non-fiction, is fiction must be believable.
So plz, no outrageous rockets or Sci-Fi over the top stuff, keep it fun and credible. :p

I prefer the book version of Bond myself. And for those who do not know, he did NOT like to kill people. He demonstrates a conscience and turmol after killing, at least in Fleming's work.

So as an offensive "weapon", paintball pneumatics that shot shock/stun rounds using capacitors charged via power supply just before use.
Defensive, bright lights w/ a beam that can focus. Best used at night.

For extended range, a mono wheel pusher trailer that holds batteries tripling the range. It would hold "spy tools" for the job at hand. My version would have power supply wires through the tongue, using the bike motor(s) for eff and allow higher speeds. Should he have to 'run' the trailer could be ejected in motion (obstruct chaser, dead bat, jump a creek). Any recommendations on a quick disconnect for the electrical? :idea: How would a CA hook up to a multi source power supply?

Well aware these ideas may never come to fruition, but U NEVER KNOW WHERE IMAGINATION WILL TAKE U! :shock:
 
It would have to be a downhill bike with 8-9" of suspension travel so during his getaway he could huck from the roof of the bad-guy's 4-story complex, bust a move in midair, then make a smooth landing and motor away into the night :mrgreen:
 
Ya, that would be a Hollywood trick to see, BMX style stunts performed on a fairing bike. No batteries or motor weight.
 
Well, for starters, I'd have M build me something much better than a battery to run the motor, say a cigarette pack size 10,000 wh fuel cell.

Well, no less impossible than any of the other bond gadgets.

Then put it powering the 20 hp RC motor on the 12" travel DH bike.

The shot of Bond hucking a backflip from one building to the roof of another in a tux would actually be done by Travis Pastrana, of course.

Then he could push a button deploying the ice spikes in the tires, and roar off down the icy road, while the guys in black leather riding bmw's slide off into cliffs and trees.

Funny! Just last week I began a quest to watch all the Bond films in order; the early ones are all streaming now over Netflix. 8)

I think that I would add mini-JATO rockets to boost the distance when jumping between roof-tops. It would also have to have a remote-controlled ejector seat for when a criminal mind attempts to steal the ebike. With a satellite phone, Bond would always be connected to his world, even though it is never really enough. All the power is routed through fibre-optic, rendering the ebike impervious to enemy EMP and tactical nuclear explosions. The latest night-vision using microwave could help Bond navigate through the fog and ash of war, see through walls and buildings, as well as at night when audio-canceling software hides the ebike’s acoustical signature. Inflatable outriggers and mechanically-augmented wheels convert the Bond bike into a turf-to-surf screamer as he jets across the water. But the real feat of technical prowess is when his ebike’s wheels rotate horizontally and the rims flare to provide lift has Bond hovers upwards and away with boobalicous babe on the back…

Yeah, that would work for starters 8)
Martini please, KF
