Palau-Solità i Plegamans (Barcelona), 7th February 2024 – Vertigo Motors, the renowned Spanish trial motorbike brand, marks a milestone in its history with the launch of the Vertigo LINKO. What is the Vertigo LINKO? It marks Vertigo Motors’ expansion into a new sector within the realm of two-wheelers. In the few years since its inception, the brand has established itself as one of the leading trial bike manufacturers. In addition to pioneering innovative products, Vertigo Motors has garnered global acclaim, securing two World Championship runners-up titles, two Spanish Championships, and numerous triumphs in the esteemed Scottish 6 Days Trials. Now, Vertigo Motors is advancing to consolidate its foothold in a fresh segment of the two-wheeler market.
Versatility without limits
The Vertigo LINKO epitomizes versatility in its truest form, excelling effortlessly on asphalt while demonstrating nimble agility on both track and rugged mountainous off-road terrain. There are no boundaries thanks to the smoothness of its clutch and the power of its 4-stroke 125cc engine.
This new bike from Vertigo Motors has been meticulously developed in the Research and Development department in Palau-Solità i Plegamans, where engineers have fused innovation and experience to create a modern and versatile motorbike, suitable for all riders and terrains. The development process has entailed months of unwavering dedication and meticulous refinement to guarantee that the LINKO adheres to the most stringent standards. As a 125 cc model, it is ideal for newcomers to two-wheelers holding an A2 licence.
Additionally, it stands out as a straightforward, low-maintenance and fuel-efficient motorcycle, owing to the advanced Vertigo-engineered electronics. The brand, renowned for its expertise in fuel injection for two-stroke motorcycles, has achieved global acclaim. Now, it has pioneered electronic fuel injection tailored specifically for a four-stroke engine.

The Vertigo LINKO is not just a motorbike, it is also an exciting, dynamic riding experience. Boasting a 4-stroke engine with a displacement of 125cc, the LINKO delivers remarkable power, guaranteeing an exhilarating ride across any terrain. Whether enjoying speed in the city or overcoming off-road obstacles, the LINKO promises a thrilling ride at all times. And it’s also ready to be enjoyed in company: it’s approved for two people, with a comfortable seat, double footpegs and grab handles for easy gripping.
Performance and efficiency
As mentioned earlier, the Vertigo LINKO has undergone extensive road and mountain testing for over two years, ensuring its performance and efficiency across diverse conditions while adapting to the environment. From city streets to highways, mountain trails, and rugged terrain, the LINKO seamlessly integrates into any landscape. Every component of the LINKO has been rigorously tested on this proving ground to deliver optimal performance.
