电影



When General Grievous's droid army on Utapau was uncovered by Jedi Master Obi-Wan Kenobi, the Separatist general attempted to escape in a wheel bike -- a hoop-shaped rolling vehicle equipped with mechanical legs that could be used in an alternate walking mode. The leaping capabilities of these legs proved useful in navigating the cliffs and crags of the cavernous Utapau terrain.
当格里弗斯将军的机器人军队在尤塔帕被绝地大师欧比-旺·克诺比发现时，这位分离势力将军企图乘坐一辆轮形摩托逃走。这种环状滚动交通工具装备有机械腿，用来切换到行走模式。在尤塔帕洞穴地形的悬崖峭壁间穿行时，这些机械腿的跳跃能力被证明很有用。

Since stopping Grievous could bring an end to the Clone Wars, Obi-Wan was relentless in his pursuit of the cyborg general as the Jedi gave chase astride a giant Utapaun dragon named Boga. Kenobi was able to keep pace with Grievous and leapt aboard the wheel bike, trying to wrest control away from the general. The bike tottered out of control, spilling its occupants onto a nearby landing platform before tumbling into the sinkhole abyss.
既然解决掉格里弗斯将军就能结束克隆人战争，欧比-旺便对这位半机器人将军紧追不舍，这名绝地用于追击的座驾是一头叫作博加的大型尤塔帕龙。克诺比追上格里弗斯，跳上轮形摩托，试图从将军手里夺下摩托的控制权。轮形摩托在摇晃中失去控制，把它的两名乘客甩到附近一个着陆平台上，然后翻入天坑深渊。

衍生宇宙



General Grievous' tumbling twinwheel conveyance was a product of the automated factories transforming raw Utapaun materials into war material. Based on technologies devised for the hoop-wheeled hailfire droids used by the InterGalactic Banking Clan, the wheel bikes are well suited for the awkward Utapaun terrain.
格里弗斯将军的滚动双轮座驾是一家自动化工厂的产品，该工厂将尤塔帕的原材料转为战争物资。被星际银河业集团用来设计环形轮式暴火机器人的科技是轮形摩托的基础，轮形摩托非常适用于尤塔帕的险峻地形。

Designed by Z-Gomot Ternbuell Guppat Corporation in the Zug system, the Tsmeu-6 derives its stability from the gyroscopic effect produced by the massive counterspinning internal chains that drive the wheel. The chain-links feature built-in capacitors that store reserve energy to power the legs and the double blaster assembly that sits opposite the control chair.
茨缪-6由楚格星系的Z-戈莫特特恩比尔古帕特公司设计，其稳定性来源于巨型抗偏转内部链条产生的陀螺效应，摩托的轮子也有这种链条驱动。链环拥有内置电容，能储存预备能量，从而为机械腿和驾驶座对面的双管枪部件提供动力。

Helping the wheel bike secure stable purchase are flexible claws that provide a smooth ride and serve as climbing teeth on steep surfaces.
灵活的机械腿爪提供了平稳的骑车体验，在陡峭的表面充当攀爬齿，帮助轮形摩托获得稳定的黏附力。

幕后



Grievous' wheel bike is not the first vehicle of its kind seen in Star Wars. Inspired by a popular concept found in numerous pulp publications, the hoop-like wheel bike design can also be found as Jann Tosh's vehicle in the Droids animated series.
格里弗斯的轮形摩托并非这类交通工具在《星球大战》里的首次亮相。环状轮形摩托的设计灵感来源于无数廉价出版物中的流行概念，在《机器人》动画连续剧里，詹恩·托什的座驾也是这种摩托。

For Episode III, the wheel bike started off as a variety of fearsome vehicular concepts befitting the nasty droid general, such as included tank-like chariots. One idea was that the vehicle itself was an intelligent droid, mirroring Obi-Wan's faithful Boga as "living" mount for General Grievous.
对《第三部》而言，轮形摩托的前身是各种各样为那位恶心的机器人将军度身定制的可怕座驾概念，其中包括想坦克一样的战车。有一种创意是，该座驾本身是一个智慧机器人，作为格里弗斯将军的“活体”坐骑，跟忠于欧比-旺的博加相呼应。
