Trials Torque: Get in the Combat zone
By John Dickinson on 20th Sep 17
IF you want the absolute ultimate in a state of the art production trials machine then Vertigo has just the thing for you with its Combat Titanium R model.
This is a jaw-dropping, limited edition machine featuring titanium space frame construction for exclusivity and extreme light weight and which is unique in a production machine.
The titanium frame is complemented by an equally exclusive magnesium swinging arm for the ultimate featherweight chassis.
Suspension is by top spec Tech forks up front and three-way adjustable Reiger rear shock.
There are exclusive touches and components right through with special clutch and ignition cover to further reduce weight, Renthal bars, CNC brake components, new plastics and a raft of updates.
The Vertigo Combat is ground-breaking in its own right anyway with the space frame chassis and computer controlled fuel injected two-stroke motor, electric water pump, low centre of gravity with fuel tank mounted in front of the rear shock etc, etc
If it's exclusivity you want it doesn't get better than a Titanium R.
