The mode that allows you to ride a bike inside GTA V
With the gift of GTA V and its Criminal Enterprise Starter Pack from Epic Games, many have discovered a unique title for the first time. Others, however, have joined the trend to enjoy a very particular game again. So much so that through a multitude of mods for GTA V the Rockstar title can be completely turned around. But what few of us imagined is that someone would one day create one of these mods with a very particular purpose: to be able to ride a bike and walk around Los Santos. But beware, that riding was already possible, here the novelty is that you will do it on your real bike, connected to the game so that each pedaling is transformed into movement within the video game. You do not believe it? Look at this video.
How GT Bike V works
Placing yourself in front of the TV and pedaling while you travel different stages is something that we already knew was possible to do. There are different platforms that allow cycling training without leaving home. Some of them are Tacx, Elite, Bkool, Kinetic, Saris, etc. All of these make use of a common communication protocol called ANT + that through compatible accessories allows you to transfer your real pedaling to different simulators.
Well, taking advantage of this is how this mod called GT Bike V has been created, a very interesting proposal and that will undoubtedly be the dream of any fan of GTA V and cycling. Especially for the advantages offered by the Rockstar title, which has immense decorations with an amount of detail that far exceeds what can be seen on other platforms.
To make use of this mode, in addition to cycling and one of these virtual training platforms, what you will need is to download the GT Bike V mod from this link. Once you have it, all you have to do is perform the necessary steps for its installation. These don’t seem to be complicated at all and in this Chris Pritchard video you have the whole process explained . It is in English, but it is not difficult to follow.
As an interesting fact about the mode, this generates a .FIT file with which you will have a summary of your session and the route. So you can upload it to service as Strava and share it with your friends or acquaintances. Which is even more fun when they ask you where you’ve been.
In short, that this mod created by Makinolo is a marvel, a very original proposal and that it has important advantages over simulators and other cycling training systems. For that dizzy quality and the details of the game itself. The only downside is that it is only available for single player mode . Can you imagine being able to meet your friends to pedal together? Would be wonderful.
