VOG Design

PRODUCT DESIGN & DEVELOPMENT - MANUFACTURE - BRAND ENGINEERING

Est. 1997, VOG is the force behind industry award winning product design, coupled with brand engineering and inhouse manufacturing with uncompromising focus on providing innovative, smart solutions and unmatched client service.

Located in the bicycle capital of the world, Taichung City, TAIWAN, the VOG HQ is a turn-key operation developing product from concept, through research, design, development, testing, manufacture - and finally, brand engineering, to deliver dynamic, relevant product to the mountain biking sector globally.
From 1980’s grassroots beginnings in a bike shed behind a surf shop in Africa, to today’s state-of-the-art design, testing and manufacturing processes, the collective behind VOG, led by President Gavin Michael Vos, is a diverse multi-national team of riders, engineers and craftsmen. They all have a common trait hard-wired into their DNA - make it count!

Make it better. Make it smarter. Make it responsibly. Make it with passion. Make it accessible.
MAKE IT COUNT.
