Chain Gangers

The Chain Gangers are a faction of self-serving raiders obsessed with bicycles located in various parts of New Austin. Typically wearing clothing comprised of pre-war biking clothes, patchwork leather jackets with bike tire attachments, and almost always equipped with metal spiked bicycle helmets, the Chain Gangers are fairly identifiable from afar. They have a large number of people in their faction but are divided into separate local chapters throughout the city of New Austin that operate separately but in conjunction with each other with a single leadership at the top of it all.

They aim to control the roads and actively trap and disable vehicles, robbing and killing those inside. They only look out for themselves and are at odds with anyone else that isn't in their ranks. Their demeanor is generally close to most of those in the wastes, but many of those in the gang have joined either under duress or out of necessity, so many have been known to defect entirely.
