A three-wheeled oddity just landed in Los Santos, and Typical Gamer bought one immediately.

Rockstar Games slipped another vehicle into its ongoing Grand Theft Auto Online drip-feed this week, and it’s unlike anything currently parked in a player’s garage: the Nagasaki Stryder, a trike built with one wheel up front and two in the back. Popular GTA content creator Typical Gamer grabbed one off Legendary Motorsport the moment it went live and spent an entire video running it through Los Santos Customs before taking it out for a proper spending spree across the city.

  • The Nagasaki Stryder is a three-wheeled motorcycle — one front wheel, two rear wheels — released on Legendary Motorsport as part of the drip-feed content following The Diamond Casino Heist update.
  • Rockstar marketed the trike with the tagline: “Two is some. Three is best. Three wheels. Three figures on the speedometer.”
  • Typical Gamer’s video walks through purchasing the Stryder, customizing it with aesthetic and performance upgrades at Los Santos Customs, and testing its handling and top speed on the streets.

The Stryder’s Unconventional Layout

Trikes aren’t new to GTA Online, but Rockstar’s approach to the Stryder flips the usual formula. Instead of two wheels at the front for stability with one trailing wheel behind, the Stryder puts a single wheel up front and doubles up in the rear, giving it a stance closer to a stripped-down chopper than anything resembling a traditional three-wheeler. It’s a design choice that immediately shows up in how the bike leans and tracks through corners, and it’s the first thing Typical Gamer points out once he rolls it out of the dealership.

Anyone who’s spent time chasing new rides through the game’s ever-expanding catalog, including the guide covered in ZERO to MILLIONS: The Ultimate Guide for NEW and BROKE Players of GTA Online, knows Rockstar tends to lean into gimmick vehicles during these drip-feed windows. The Stryder fits that pattern squarely — it’s built to turn heads on the Vinewood strip, not necessarily to top a leaderboard.

Rockstar’s Pitch and the Marketing Line

Rockstar didn’t undersell the Stryder’s identity crisis-as-feature. The in-game ad copy leans directly into the “why not three” logic with its tagline.

Two is some. Three is best. Three wheels. Three figures on the speedometer.

That line is doing double duty — it’s a joke about wheel count, but it’s also a promise about performance, hinting the Stryder can crack the triple digits on the in-game speedometer once properly upgraded. Whether that holds up became the whole point of Typical Gamer’s test run.

Customizing at Los Santos Customs

Before hitting the road, Typical Gamer runs the Stryder through the full Los Santos Customs menu, working through paint jobs and aesthetic options alongside performance parts meant to push its acceleration and top speed. This is standard procedure for any new drip-feed vehicle — the base model rarely tells the whole story until it’s been fully kitted out — and the video treats the customization pass as step one before the real test comes on the streets of the city, the same backdrop familiar to fans of stunt-driving content like Playing GTA 5 Without Breaking Any Laws!.

Once upgraded, the trike gets put through its paces across Los Santos during an in-game spending spree, with Typical Gamer testing handling and maneuverability at speed rather than just cruising for the camera. It’s the kind of hands-on breakdown that tells subscribers whether a new drip-feed toy is worth the in-game cash or just a novelty that looks better parked than driven.

The Stryder lands as one more entry in Rockstar’s steady post-Casino Heist rollout, the same drip-feed rhythm that’s kept GTA Online’s vehicle list growing update after update — and going by Typical Gamer’s test laps, this one’s earned its spot in the garage rotation, three wheels and all.
