Aside from those bikes being manufactured for military purposes in the gameworld (which would necessarily be more rugged), I'm willing to argue that GDW's ideas about bikes were probably in some part, formed from Viet Cong/North Vietnamese use of bikes during the Vietnam War (given that a few of the contributing writers at the time were former US military and veterans of the Vietnam War).
