Basso Bikes - Palta 2021 GRX 600
Basso are one of the only long standing European bike manufacturers who still produce their bikes completely in house. From their frames to the majority of their finishing kit, Basso bikes are made in Dueville, Italy. For such incredibly high quality finish, we believe Basso to be extremely good value when looking at mid to high end road and gravel bikes.
The 2021 Basso Palta Disc Carbon Gravel bike in Phantom Black has been described as 'the most complete gravel bike'.
The Palta is handmade in Italy and delivers confident handling and incredible speed regardless of the terrain.
SIZING Guide:
XXS = 44
XS = 48
S = 51
M = 53/54
L = 56XL = 58
XXL = 60/61
**Be aware that geometry doesn't necessarily dictate the riding a bike aims at (though it is obviously a pretty good guide) - the Astra and Diamante SV are good examples. Always remember a geometry that fits you will make you faster than a geometry that doesn't - if the bike is a top-of-the-line race bike but doesn't fit, it is unlikely to make you fast - more likely uncomfortable, distracted and slower as a result!**
