Company History
Vertigo fused Spain’s trials heritage with modern electronics, pioneering fuel injection and sophisticated ECU mapping in a segment long dominated by carburetors. Lightweight frames, carbon subframes, and mass-centralized tanks give razor-sharp balance, while tunable maps help riders find traction on wet rock and dusty climbs. The brand’s deep engagement with top riders—most famously Dougie Lampkin—turns elite feedback into production geometry, clutch feel, and heat management. Vertigo’s approach brings repeatability: set sag, choose a map, and the bike behaves the same section after section. Support networks and parts logistics matured quickly for a boutique maker, making ownership feasible beyond factory paddocks. The result is a modern reference for precision trials machinery.
