** Actually, there's a good reason for that: those bikes are supposed to be used by explorers, who may get discovered by the Rebels during the work. In that case, they'll want to get away as fast as possible while preventing the Rebels from calling reinforcements or even air support or an artillery barrage, and given they use the very same technology, the only way to do that is to jam EVERYTHING. Once they've got far enough from the target that the Rebels won't be able to blow you to smitherens in a moment, you can stop jamming and call your main force so they'll be able to do the job.
