The Magikruiser is a small hang-on-type bike in Mario Kart Wii . The Magikruiser resembles a Magikoopa lying out with wheels on its arms and legs. Specifically, it is likely a reference to Kamek, as the bike's engine and exhaust pipe resemble a broom and it is designed for lightweight characters, including babies. The Magikruiser is unlocked by playing a Time Trial on eight different courses or by playing 900 races. The emblem appears on the sides on the bike.
The kart counterpart for this bike is the Tiny Titan, and its medium counterpart is the Dolphin Dasher.
Stats
|
Vehicle type: Hang-on |
The Magikruiser has the best off-road stat in the game, enabling it to take shortcuts without losing too much speed. However, its drift is below average, having the worst drifting of the small bikes, as well as the third worst drifting of the hang-on type bikes behind the Spear and Dolphin Dasher, although its hang-on type helps keep that a minor issue, enabling it to make tight turns. Additionally, it is very light (its weight is tied with the Bullet Bike and Cheep Charger), which makes it easy for the vehicle to be pushed around by heavier vehicles. All of its other stats are average. Its acceleration is tied with the Zip Zip (its indirect group counterpart), and its speed is tied with the Phantom and the Standard Bike M, though it is the second slowest inside drifting bike in the game, only being faster than the Quacker. Additionally, Toadette's Magikruiser has the best off-road stat in the game, enabling her to drive in Shy Guy Beach's tides, Grumble Volcano's dirt, Coconut Mall's long offroad section, and Sherbet Land's ice as if it was normal terrain that slowed her down only a little. Its other stats range from average to moderately high.
If Baby Luigi or Baby Daisy ride the Magikruiser, its speed will tie with the Dolphin Dasher's, Jet Bubble's, and the Standard Kart L's default speed.

Trading Card info
"Maybe Magikoopa misfired on a spell and turned himself into a Bike? Whatever the case, the Magikruiser is a good choice for Time Trials because of its balanced stat characteristics and great Off-Road capabilities."
