The Spear is the fastest bike in the game, and it also has good weight (which is tied with the [[Jetsetter]]). However, all its other stats are quite low. It shares the same drift stat as the [[Zip Zip]] and the [[Tiny Titan]], but suffers from the worst handling, off-road, and [[Mini-Turbo]] among all bikes and its off-road is equivalent to the [[Flame Flyer]]'s off-road. It is also the second heaviest bike in the game, after the [[Wario Bike]], and it is the second fastest vehicle in the game, only behind its Jetsetter counterpart.

Stats

Template:Mkwiistat The Spear is the fastest bike in the game, and it also has good weight (which is tied with the Jetsetter). However, all its other stats are quite low. It shares the same drift stat as the Zip Zip and the Tiny Titan, but suffers from the worst handling, off-road, and Mini-Turbo among all bikes and its off-road is equivalent to the Flame Flyer's off-road. It is also the second heaviest bike in the game, after the Wario Bike, and it is the second fastest vehicle in the game, only behind its Jetsetter counterpart. While the visual graph shows the Spear with the same acceleration stat as the Mach Bike, its internal data shows it is actually slower.
