The Hang-On (ハングオン,Hanguon?) is a recurring Bike type Extreme Gear in the Sonic Riders series. Its appearance in the games is themed after the motorcycle the player uses in Sega's arcade game Hang-On. When in use, the Hang-On will play the theme music from the Hang-On game in the background.
The Hang-On made its first appearance in Sonic Riders. According to its profile, it is a collector's Gear and has great value. It is unlocked in the game by completing the Heroes Story in Story Mode and can then be purchased at the shop for 2,000 Rings.
The Hang-On's design in Sonic Riders resembles a red and black racing motorcycle, with a screen in the front of the front fork and blue stripes along its sides.

The Hang-On later made a reappearance in Sonic Riders: Zero Gravity. According to its profile in this game, it is a collector's gear that is said to contain the souls of two legendary motorcycles. It can be purchased at the shop for 9,200 Rings.
The design for the Hang-On in this game remains the same as it was in Sonic Riders.

As a Bike type Extreme Gear in Sonic Riders: Zero Gravity, the Hang-On is amazingly above-average on its attributes, since three of the four attributes are at the maximum level, and allows its rider to crash through obstacles and barricades without slowing down. The Hang-On maintains the same background music changing ability in this game as it had in Sonic Riders.
The Hang-On made another appearance in Sonic Free Riders. According to its profile, the Hang-On houses the soul of a legendary bike. It can be purchased from the shop with 1,750 Rings.
Just like in Sonic Riders: Zero Gravity, the Hang-On maintains the same design it had in Sonic Riders, though in Sonic Free Riders, its details have been updated to closely resemble the design of the motorcycle the player uses in the Hang-On game. In addition, its fork is slightly wider.
Abilities and traits[]
As a Bike type Extreme Gear in Sonic Free Riders, the Hang-On is more powerful, but less maneuverable than most other types of Extreme Gears but it is well-balanced on its attributes with average statistics and allows its rider to punch through obstacles and barricades.
Like in Sonic Riders: Zero Gravity, the Hang-On possesses the same background music changing ability it had in Sonic Riders. It can be equipped with one Gear Part as the first slot is always set to the Power skill.
