Heralding from the same town as French downhill legends Nico Vouilloz and Fabien Barel, Loris Vergier has been surrounded by mountain bike success for as long as he can remember. Vergier began his career as teammates with best friend and rival Loic Bruni, capturing a Junior World Championship and much deserved attention from the industry. Now entering his fourth year of Elite Men’s downhill racing, Vergier has racked up a string of podiums and has certainly become one to watch.
