November 3, 201411 yr From the teaser pic it looks like they've nicked the front light straight off a jotagas??
November 3, 201411 yr So are we thinking they will have re-invented the wheel? Carbon frame? upside down engine? Diesel powered?
November 4, 201411 yr Guess what, it looks just like every othervtrials bike. Loads of maps for every gear fi etc
November 4, 201411 yr Disagree mate, that frame design is unique, steel trellis at the top, aluminium lower parst, nothing else like that around just now
November 4, 201411 yr My first impressions are that the team who worked on it have done a fantastic job. I suspect it is going to cost a few bob though as the mention of a Vertigo club suggest to me they are looking at the top end of the market. Lets see ..
November 4, 201411 yr Disagree mate, that frame design is unique, steel trellis at the top, aluminium lower parst, nothing else like that around just now You mean nothing else around right now on a trials bike?
November 4, 201411 yr Its not blatantly clear what the difference is between the 2 models other than the styling. I expect the engine performance will be very nice and the best bit about it. The whole package reminds me of the Ossa - a little. "The gear box has been tested for two years" - probably in another manufacturers bike lol. There's nothing that justifies a crazy high price other than the desire to make their riders exclusive. Bearing in mind the amount of new bikes sold most riders are exclusive anyway on what ever brand they ride . Overall - very nice but no WOW for me , but i expect to much , as well do , given the hype
November 4, 201411 yr Looks very nice to me. Nice mix of conventional features and innovation. First thing I wondered was are the guy's at HOPE involved in this? Colours, graphics, and engineering are all very reminiscent of HOPE MTB products. Dougie has links to them, doesn't he?
November 4, 201411 yr Looks ok, I'm sure the guys at Vertigo are proud of their new bike. Sure it will ride real good, but I think the rear mudguard looks a bit old fashion. Good luck to them though, hope they succeed.
November 4, 201411 yr Its not blatantly clear what the difference is between the 2 models other than the styling. A quick look at the brochure shows the white one (Ice Hell) lists as 63Kg, has the gold Tech forks & titanium exhaust 'manifold'. The green one (Camo) lists as 66Kg, has the black Tech forks & stainless steel exhaust.
November 4, 201411 yr Looks something special not sure if 4 different maps and 31 hp might be too much though Any news on price looks like a bike for very talented riders with deep pockets
