Basso was founded in 1977 in San Zenone degli Ezzelini, in Italy’s Treviso province — a region with deep roots in Italian frame building. The brand started in steel and worked its way through aluminium and into carbon over the following decades, maintaining the Italian approach to frame geometry and ride character throughout. Today Basso produces road, gravel, e-bike, and commuter bicycles, with the SV and Diamante serving as their top-tier road offerings and the Palta leading the gravel lineup. More at bassobikes.com.
The RA Cycles selection focuses on framesets across Basso’s core road and gravel models. The SV is the flagship — a high-end road frame suited to a custom build at the top end of the range. The Diamante SV is the performance road option, available in both disc and rim brake versions for riders who want a specific brake standard. The Palta covers gravel territory in disc and rim brake formats, and the Astra offers a performance disc road platform at a lower entry point. MAAP collaboration editions are available across several models for riders who want the limited colorways.
