NovelTech Corvette Cyberlegs
The Corvette Cyberlegs are manufactured by NovelTech and are the only worthwhile competitors to the Speeding Bullet cyberware. They are more modular than Speeding Bullets, although the basic surgery is the same. The spine and lower rib-cage are reinforced, and the hips are replaced by Smoothflow™ hydraulic ball systems, thickened myomer muscle groups, and hardened joints.
The basic system sub dermally implants a small control computer, which, in combo with biofeedback conditioning, adds to the user's maneuvering. A second computer (called the High Speed Maneuvering System) can be added, further increasing the user's movement rate and maneuverability.[1][2]
Triva
- Cyberpunk probably called the leg cyberware Corvette because it's the name of a fast sportscar made by Chevrolet.
