BASSO
Basso bikes are, as they put it themselves, “functionally beautiful, beautiful functionally”. With framesets that are entirely handmade from scratch in Italy, right across the range, Basso bikes exhibit the kind of craftsmanship that others only aspire to.
“At Basso, it’s all about creating the best riding experience for passionate cyclists like you and us.” Alcide Basso (founder)
From racing, to your Sunday rides, from aero to climbing bikes, from leading edge to more affordable solutions, Basso’s goal is to create bikes with better handling, greater reliability, and a ride quality that leaves you feeling inspired to ride further, harder and faster. It’s all about experiencing joy from riding, wherever you ride.
And as with so many other premium Italian products, style is as important as performance with Basso bikes. For Basso, a simply functional bicycle would not be enough. The aesthetic balance of every detail is taken into account. The result is a range of bikes that is both exciting to look and to ride.

For 30 years the iconic Astra has been hand-made in Basso’s factory in Italy. The latest in this line of prestigious frames is the best Astra yet – smooth, fast, efficient with characteristically refined Basso handling, making it the ideal all-rounder for every kind of road.
The new Basso SV is designed to deliver maximum speed for the widest range of riders. Tailored to enthusiastic amateurs rather than exclusively pro riders with their specialised needs, the SV offers a perfect balance of aerodynamics, light weight, and precise handling.
The all-new Basso Palta III is a comfortable and capable gravel race bike when speed matters, and a premium, fast adventure bike when the ride turns longer, rougher, or more exploratory. Pure Italian performance, flair and versatility.
