    Any bike specialists here?

    Because of this week's Midnight Circuit uses the Agent bike, I got to ride that bike for the first time (I started TF around March, so I don't have it yet).

    Now that I got to see the bike in action, I was wondering, is the Agent inspired by a bike in real life? (I think it looks fabulous, you know? XD)
    What about the other bikes?

    Thanks for replying if you do =) Really appreciate it

    The Agent was inspired by the movie Mission Impossible Rogue Nation, and by the black BMWs used in the movie. It was a package promo/marketing deal with the movie though, not with BMW.

    Not to mention that the skin used in this week's event has only been in a bundle, obviously the normal colour of the Agent is black, but as you can see we get to ride a White Agent bike for a week, which is quite nice actually.

    As for the other bikes, the Donkey is just a traditionally hard, yet smaller bike which has been in the Trials series since Trials HD, and which obviously can be devilishly tricky to use, but can be a very effective bike to use too once you can tame it. (The actual name for that bike in Trials HD is called the 'Micro Donkey', which is literally almost the same bike and looks quite similar as well.)

    The Stallion is just a made-up bike which looks like a horse (more specifically, a Stallion), and doesn't look like a bike at all, let alone a real bike.

    I actually don't mind the Agent either, I do want the white paint-job for it though. (Permanently, not just for a week.)

    Cheers.
