Basso to włoska marka z Bassano del Grappa w Wenecji Euganejskiej, założona w 1977 roku i wciąż prowadzona rodzinnie. Ich oferta szosowa obejmuje większość dyscyplin: Diamante SV to flagowa platforma szosowo-wyścigowa, Venta sprawdza się w jeździe all-road i lżejszym gravelu, a Palta jest przeznaczona do gravelu i jazdy przygodowej. Basso ma długą historię we włoskim kolarstwie zawodowym i zajmuje dziś pozycję ze średniej półki — oferując prawdziwą włoską konstrukcję karbonową w cenie znacznie niższej niż Pinarello czy Colnago.
Basso Bikes is an Italian brand with a deep-rooted passion for racing, founded in 1977 by Alcide Basso, brother of World Champion Marino Basso. From its headquarters in San Zenone degli Ezzelini and production facilities in Vicenza, the brand has continuously pushed the boundaries of innovation.
Its history is intertwined with cycling legend Eddy Merckx, who visited the factory while developing his own bike brand. Basso was among the pioneers in material innovation, introducing advanced rust-resistant steel before moving on to carbon fiber. Their first carbon frame was even studied at the University of Graz to analyze its torsional and bending forces.
By the early '90s, Basso bikes were already competing at the highest levels, ridden by champions like Dimitri Konyshev, Gilberto Simoni, Massimo Strazzer, and Endrio Leoni. Today, Basso continues to blend tradition, performance, and cutting-edge technology, making each ride a statement of excellence.
What Basso road bikes are available on Bikeroom?
Bikeroom's Basso collection features Italian road bikes from a brand with deep roots in the professional peloton. The Diamante SV is Basso's aero road flagship — developed with Groupama-FDJ and optimised for race conditions. The Venta is the climbing frame: lighter, more direct, suited to mountain stages. The Palta covers endurance geometry for long-day riding. Builds typically run Shimano Ultegra or Dura-Ace, with SRAM options on selected models. Both new and pre-owned stock appears in the collection.
How does Basso compare to other Italian road bike brands?
Basso sits comfortably alongside Wilier and Pinarello in the Italian road tradition — race-focused, well-engineered, with genuine WorldTour exposure. Compared to Pinarello, Basso tends to carry slightly lower pre-owned prices despite comparable engineering quality, which makes the Diamante SV and Venta attractive options for buyers who want Italian race heritage without the full Dogma premium. Compared to Wilier, Basso has a stronger modern race identity and slightly more aggressive geometry across the range.
