Latest appearance Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga + Bowser's Minions (2017)

Bike Pads[1] are paired platforms found in Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga and its remake, Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga + Bowser's Minions. They have the appearance of two small yellow platforms with eyes. To use them, Mario and Luigi have to jump onto a Bike Pad, which will be lying on the ground on the edge of a cliff. Afterward, the Mario Bros. must alternate jumps to move the Bike Pads across a chasm, reminiscent of bicycle pedals. They bear a resemblance to the tiles from Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars. In Mario & Luigi: Dream Team, a similar-acting object is the Gonzola.
