Since 2018 The Palta has carved its own path. While the industry
developed gravel bikes for specific niches Basso stayed true to a
specific vision: Uncompromising versatility. The Palta III is the total
evolution of that essence. They've pushed every boundary increasing
lateral stiffness for explosive power sharpening the aerodynamics for
maximum efficiency against the wind and deepening the compliance to
smooth out the harshest gravel trails. Frame Features: As with all Basso frames and forks the Palta is handmade in Italy
and Basso were among the first to use carbon in its frames researching
new methods and techniques to continually improve performance
reliability and durability. The beauty of such technology is that the
fantastic ride quality that derives from such engineering is permanent
making a Basso frame perform equally after several seasons use as it did
on the first day. Palta III features an internal downtube storage system designed to
house your essentials in two dedicated bags all secured by a
colour-matched carbon cover and a Fidlock magnetic locking system. To
ensure your frame is as resilient as your spirit Basso collaborated with
Vibram to develop a custom bash guard for maximum protection against
rock strikes. Strato Stem Option The Basso Strato Stem is a lightweight forged-alloy stem designed for
riders who want a stiff responsive cockpit with fully integrated cable
routing. Its sleek profile and -8 degree angle make it
ideal for achieving a precise performance-focused fit while keeping the
front end clean and aerodynamic. Its standout feature is the detachable bottom plate a major upgrade that dramatically simplifies cable installation and maintenance while preserving a sleek aerodynamic look. Strato Sizes Supplied - XS: 80mm
