Unknown Bike Co.
 
Anyone heard of these people? I can't find a geo chart, but the bike sort of appeals to me.

Yeah, that was a month ago. No geo charts in a blog post or on their shop site.

Whoops, for some reason I thought today was tomorrow and this month was last month...

Unknown is known more for their fgfs frames I think these are the first of their non-fgfs, so there isn't much info on them yet. If anything just email them and ask.

-1 track end plates only on the outside

Unknown Bike Co has been around for a while and has received a lot of crap for ripping off other companies' product designs. There was a story of them totally copying a chainring design a while back that got them into some hot water.

That frame doesn't look too shabby but if I wanted to ride a Leader, I'd just buy a Leader.

^truth. just get a 735

ciy grounds just had it on sale yesterday for $175. Call them up, I bet they have the geo.
It's not a 735, the tubeset is completely different.
Get a Leader and don't buy UNKWN because they may have copied something... pot calling kettle black.

Scrodzilla 12-03-11 11:10 AM

That's not what I was saying, but alright.

First link actually has geo.

Second link is their BMX frame?

chantymac 12-03-11 12:08 PM

Whoops my bad. Well I hope the first link was of some help.

Looks like a rebranded Leader...

Looks like, but it's not, obviously...

I was more or less trying to find out about the company in general. Scrod answered that.

Scrodzilla 12-03-11 02:21 PM

It seems they had really sketchy beginnings (like Leader) but it looks as though they may be trying to turn it around (also like Leader).

calv 12-03-11 02:26 PM

They're stealing Leaders formula for success!!

Scrodzilla 12-03-11 02:26 PM

I hope you're joking, cause if not, you must be that guy that painted and decaled a 725 like a Bianchi Pista Concept and thought no one would be the wiser.

BoozyMcliverRot 12-05-11 01:12 AM

Geo is what you need to look at,crappy welds are still welds.It may n ot be pretty<but it will still be a solid ride.

Oh,6000 series or 7000 series is still uncomfortable for daily riding. just be happy you have a bike.

bmw 12-05-11 10:11 AM

Disgusting welds, just like tha Leader

Scrodzilla 12-05-11 10:29 AM

Where do you see "disgusting" welds anywhere on this page?

FakeFuji 12-05-11 12:19 PM

welds look really well finished to me, it looks like it would be a badass bike built up
