Thanks for the honest review. I like the plant tour too.

Great review as always. Informative, honest and entertaining. Keep it up.

Thanks Danny. I like the fact you look at this from a ‘living with the bike’ perspective. Really important that. I would love a 300 it would feed my ego. But I know 250 is more than enough. Great review

Great review danny! Thanks for your honesty.

Respect for being honest. entertaining video as always.

Got to ride the 250 Nitro yesterday and my dealer put me on the list today. So stoked! Thanks for the honest review!

Fame at last! 🤩 Great video Danny. Especially enjoyed the parts department review 😂Great to see you up at Inch Perfect. Look forward to your next visit 👍 is this one mine?

Great review Danny thanks! There's a lot of talk in the comments below Danny about 125 and 200 being the great starter through clubman bike. i have a friend here in Oregon who's ridden the Scottish 6 days 11 times and used to race pro motox. Really nice guy who just came off a Montessa Repsol 260 he was on for years and went to an R3 Vertigo 250 that he then kitted up to a 280 with flywheel. (Rode that and it was so sweet :) But here's the thing, i'm that newer rider who used to ride moto 20 years ago (although not very well ;) and i have a '22 Beta Factory 200. Actually took a poll in my trials club of a few bikes when i was looking for my first bike and that came out ahead. So i found one (lucky hard to do) and got it. My friend rode mine the other night at his indoor setup. 24" inch logs, rocks, tighter space. His conclusion "really like this bike, fantastic in this tight space... super easy to balance... but in the river or bigger sections i want the stability of my Vertigo". When i rode his Vertigo i saw what he was saying. And honestly liked the stability and tractor grunt of it rather than the zing of the 200. Don't get me wrong the 200 is nice, but the Vertigo with a bit more engine just felt so solid under me... more inspiring for learning zaps etc i think. I have to learn the engine no matter what i'm on. And you can tame the engine back... gasket, gearing, flywheel, slow turn. But you can't find more power than you start with (i.e. 200 vs Lampkin 280 say). And the handling, i'd like that to stay consistent for a long time (i.e not outgrow the 200 in a year move on to another bike...) and keep getting more solid on the bike i ride. I'm hoping for a multi-year bike... they're spendy and i want it to be my friend like the bmx bike i rode into the ground as a kid. Or am i way off (in more ways than one... hahah :) ? What's your thought on the smaller bike vs moderate bike for learning more obstacle work? Thanks :)

Very good video. Nice job like always danny

Great honest review 👍

@9:32 One of my favorite shots of the back fender flex...and with that water shaking off the side, soo satisfying. @9:48 You make that hop seem so effortless; makes me wonder if my shockies are set up right lol

Great replies to the comments Danny a lot of channels don't reply these days .

Great video 🤘🏼

What a video!

Thanks for the great review. I was leaning heavily towards the nitro but a hand built bike that cost more than the competition with no grease, shock bolt interface issue and the ecu staying wet, forks need alignment and this are the problems found in only a couple weeks of ownership. Makes me wonder what else may have been overlooked or left loose that will become a problem. If the folks from vertigo are watching we or at least myself need some reassurance that there is a in house investigation and solution as to why bikes are leaving the factory that are not ready to be ridden in a mechanical or safe condition.

Great honest review as always.. 👌 completely agree with your comments near the end about gasgas having the best bike 😉 🤣 so good they haven’t changed it in 10 years😭😭😭😩🤣😇 Think maybe second generation nitro will be the bike to beat but for now I’d lean towards the R3..

Dream building in the first opening shoot lov that bike, another amazing episode well done

great rider danny i'm going down inch perfect soon i'm just a beginner like need to learn & pick up some tips & get things right mainly MX guy Enduro Trials new to me but i LIKE IT keep up the good work mate.

love this chanel

Good vid, I actually found it mega soft on the bottom where most clubman would ride the bike, never ask for big handfuls of power in the stuff we ride. Definitely has it when you need it though 👍

Not directly nitro related question but do you recomend stiffer suspension springs for riders in the 220 pound range? Thinking about re springing my r3 but also considering a new R4/Busto version . I briefly tried a nitro and had the impression that the forks were softer than my r3. Felt too soft for my body weight.

Hi Danny, Very accurate review. I collected my Nitro 300 last November. Love the bike. Amazed at the lean 2 sttoke mix 30cc. Water on ECU is a pain but it is waterproof (thank God). Needs full clean out/ dry out each ride and a dose of WD40 on the terminals. I took out linkage and shock last week to grease. Mine had 'sufficient' grease and was good but gave it a good smathering anyway. All bolts have a green mark leaving factory to confirm they were checked for tightness. Mine was 100% as I checked everything before riding. Agree the dog bones are extremely....extremely close to shock bolt so a spacer is a good suggestion. Did you grease the Head Stock bearing? What are your thoughts on drilling and inserting a grease nipple in the head stock? Thanks again for reviews. Matt

Great review 👏 have you had chance to use the em epure at a trial yet?

So the takeaways are it has great power/grunt, gets good traction, good gearbox, smooth compliant bouncy suspension......hmm what else ? the fly wheel weight, some more discussion on this would have been good, at one stage you imply it needs it and in another that maybe it doesnt ?.....................also how is the steering ? turning circle ? tendency to tip in or push the front ? balance ? clutch (drag ?)? brakes ? does the front elevate easily ? (think you implied that)......keen to hear more on how it actually performs compared to your R3 and the other brands eg GasGas etc. I get the pre-delivery was a bit lacking and maybe the ecu area could do with better waterproofing. On that ecu thing, how wet did the electronics on the R3 get ? I've never checked mine so dont know but will have a look next wet/muddy ride............keep hearing great things about the new 225cc 200 bike, sounds like the ultimate Clubman bike

Great video…..be good to see a comparison test 300 v 250 nitro. Anything in the pipeline?

Great review, Im looking at older Vertigos but that is poor that the ecu gets wet on a spanking new top line trials bike. 'oh no, hang on lads I cant do that section through the river, ecu might get nuked' .. most bizarre. Would be good if you can do some reviews on older bikes like 2017 2018 > as well for those of us not buying new. cheers

Danny - it would be great to see a Vertigo Nitro 200 vs the Beta 200 EVO Factory. I'm trying to decide if I stay with a 200 or go to a 250. I ride an EVO 200 factory now

Hello how was the gear change? Was it hard? And the clutch was soft and good? Thanks

i think they are overlooking just how versitile a morrisons bag on the ecu could be. just get the uk importer to get diego to pop one in the box as a uk upgrade. Or add them to the merch options danny and your make a mint at 5p a bag.

Very impressed with the double step-up by the RedBull feature. for a first attempt and a clean, very impressive. 🙌 Intrested to know if there is any clutch drag ? What’s it like warm- Sat in First gear, clutch lever Pulled in? Does the bike want to run away ?

straight off the block what has more early power - EM race or nitro ?

Ooops…commented too early. Look forward to the comparison video 👍🏻

Thanks for the review. How much better is in your view a nitro 2022 than a combat 2019/20? Cheers.

Does a trial bike need break in? If it does could you tell me how to break in?

Rear sus stroke from vertigo site: R3 - 170mm Nitro - 170mm So where is the gain? Are all modern trials bikes the same 170-180mm?

Hope you enjoyed the visit to the Vertigo factory- I don’t think you will be invited back 😂❤️

I looked into, the no grease thing,, lots of grease on assembles,,,on my 2022 300cc

👍

Danny you should do a 125 vs 200 for older or younger riders

The old rear mudguard and exhaust made the vertigo unique not a fan of the back end now. I can't understand the no grease thing with manufacturers of trials and enduro bikes...

And then u hope the support on the newer models is better then the older. Although a R1 is only 5 ! ! years old they became a pain to maintain. Vertigo does not support the older electronics anymore. an expensive update is the only solution. Besides that they should supply a free service manual.

7:50 you are naughty! :D :D

It’s sounds like an ossa from 2014, if only they had no gone down shi88er…?

i preferred Berta Abellan's description of the Nitro,couldn't understand a word she was saying but who cares!!!!!!

Excellent review of the bike, but not enough dog in the video. NO!

One day I hope to have such an erect mudguard that wobbles from the vibrations Seriously cool shot of the mudguard

Sounds like a bag of nails compared to a 22 300 GasGas.😂

should go back to beta Danny

Another pretty good review. You didn't mention it, but in the end, isn't the R3 better than this Nitro ? ;-)
