Description UNKNOWN BASS-X Fixed Gear Bike Aluminum / Carbon
The Unknown Bass-X is a versatile urban bike designed for comfort and everyday functionality. Featuring a lightweight 6066-T6 aluminum frame and a full carbon fork, it offers a smooth and responsive ride without the aggressive geometry of high-performance bikes. Its relaxed handling makes it ideal for city commuting while maintaining style and durability. The frame’s comfortable design ensures a smooth and enjoyable experience on urban streets, making it perfect for riders looking for a mix of functionality, comfort, and performance.
The Unknown Bass-X frame is made of high-quality, hardened 6066-T6 aluminum. The fork is carbon (12K) with a 1 1/8” aluminum steerer tube and a 30mm rake. The headset is an integrated SB, 45x45. This fixed-gear bike includes a 90mm stem and Unknown Compact 420mm handlebars. The brake levers are ZST single speed, paired with an Unknown brake set. The crankset is 165mm with a 130BCD. The chainring has 48 teeth, 130BCD, and measures 0.5 x 1.125”. The rear cog has 17 teeth.
The seat post and saddle are both made by Unknown, while the tires are 23c. The seat post measures 27.2mm x 300mm with a 22mm offset. The rims included are Unknown 28-spoke fixed-gear rims. The bottom bracket is 68x103mm, BSA, with a square taper.
For the European market, we opted for a full carbon fork instead of the standard alloy fork. This increases the price slightly but makes a significant difference in performance and comfort, not to mention enhancing the overall look of the bike.
