The bike's most standout features are shared with all bikes--[[Wheelie Bike]], [[Wheelie Scooter]], and [[King Dedede (Air Ride)|King Dedede]].  Since it relies on a wheel to propel itself, it does not float above the ground as stars do.  This renders it more susceptible to ground hazards such as the magma in [[Magma Flows]] or the snow in [[Frozen Hillside]], decelerating and messing with its handling more than it would stars.  However, it also gains the aid of [[boost panel]]s and activates [[switch]]es without the need to touch the ground with a [[charge]].  As with all bikes, it does not [[glide]] in the typical sense, but instead jumps. This means gains a sudden increase of speed when going airborne--much less than its fellow bikes--but cannot steer or alter its trajectory to the point almost all stars can.

Aside from its unique bike properties, the Rex Wheelie's most prominent attribute is its high [[top speed]] of 31.36 km/h.  It also is an extreme [[weight|heavyweight]], with high [[HP]], [[offense]], and [[defense]].  However, it has very poor [[turn|handling]], slow [[charge|charging]], paltry [[boost]], and [[glide|jump]]s only short distances.

In [[City Trial]], the Rex Wheelie can occasionally found randomly throughout the city and be mounted like most other air ride machines.  It is always available in Free Run as well.
