The Mockingbird gravbike is produced by GliderDyne Industries of Lunion and can be found all over the Spinward Marches. The basic design is similar to the classic GliderDyne Songbird, but propulsion is provided by a less precise standard grav system. The Mockingbird is intended for fairly light pleasure use, but can also serve as an affordable light general purpose transport for solitary users. The rider sits on an unenclosed seat, making operation in inclement weather unpleasant. No cargo space is provided, but up to 460kg of extra mass may be secured to the vehicle with straps without affecting performance. Enclosed cargo compartments and an additional seat are common custom add-ons.
