Actually driven in the movie The Dark Knight (2008), it was conceptualised by Nathan Crowley, who also created the Batmobile. The bike has 20-inch front and rear tyres, and the engines are in the hubs of the wheels. Crowley never revealed the power of its engine.

The sleek high-speed two-wheel that leaves trails of neon in Tron: Legacy (2010) is a fifth-generation Lightcycle that flaunts a hubless wheel design. It is powered by liquid energy, and isn’t bound by the limitations of engineering and traditional road requirements.
