The IKKI Race

The Unno IKKI Race is a high-performance electric enduro mountain bike that seamlessly blends cutting-edge technology with meticulous design. Crafted in Barcelona, this e-MTB features a carbon fiber monocoque frame offering 160mm of rear travel, paired with a 170mm travel fork, ensuring robust performance on challenging terrains.

Design and Frame

The IKKI Race's distinctive angular carbon fiber frame not only provides strength and agility but also integrates a virtual pivot suspension system for enhanced ride dynamics. Its low standover height contributes to a compact and maneuverable profile, making it adept at handling technical trails.

Motor and Battery

At the heart of the IKKI Race is the TQ HPR50 motor, renowned for its compactness and quiet operation. This motor delivers up to 50 Nm of torque and a maximum power output of 300 W, offering a natural and responsive riding experience. The integrated 360Wh battery supports substantial ride durations, and the handlebar-mounted selector allows for effortless switching between assistance modes.

Ride Performance

On the trails, the IKKI Race exhibits exceptional stability and balance, particularly at higher speeds. Its suspension design ensures the bike remains glued to the ground, providing confidence-inspiring traction through corners. The geometry strikes a balance between stability and agility, making it suitable for aggressive riders who seek precision and responsiveness.

Components

Equipped with a Fox 38 Factory fork and Fox Float X2 Factory shock, both featuring Kashima coating, the IKKI Race offers smooth and controlled suspension performance. The SRAM GX AXS T-Type 12-speed drivetrain ensures crisp and reliable shifting, while the Formula Cura 4 brakes provide robust stopping power with their 4-piston calipers and sintered pads. 

Considerations

While the IKKI Race excels in delivering a high-performance ride, its firm suspension and responsive handling may be better suited to experienced riders who can fully exploit its capabilities. Additionally, the premium components and design are reflected in its price point, positioning it as a top-tier option for discerning enthusiasts. ​

In summary, the Unno IKKI Race stands out as a meticulously engineered e-MTB that offers a harmonious blend of power, agility, and design excellence, catering to riders seeking an exhilarating and precise trail experience.
