Company History
Xispa produced lightweight trials bikes aimed at learners and club riders, emphasizing tractable power, low seat height, and affordable spares. Components were chosen for crash resilience—forged levers, tough plastics, simple jetting/EFI maps—so newcomers could practice without fear of big bills. While volumes were limited and the brand’s lifespan short, Xispa helped expand trials participation in Spain and Europe by lowering the cost of entry and focusing on the fundamentals of balance, clutch control, and traction.
