Personally from Italy to You

Choose it, Spec it, Basso Build it - You Ride it!

The Basso concept of innovation stands for: continual research for technical improvement, quality, and style with respect for the environment. To this day, we draw upon the origins of our Company---competition---to innovate and improve our bicycles. And, even though bicycle design has evolved, we have never deviated from the great tradition of offering exclusively handcrafted bicycles made in Italy by artisans trained in classic Italian frame making.

INTUITION, CONTINUITY, PASSION. Basso bicycles are designed for riders who strive to exceed their own or others’ speed limits with safety and style.

The Basso Paint Job - Beauty & Protection

All painting is performed in-house, never outsourced. This is the final stage of a process that started out as raw metal tubes or carbon fabric right in the same factory. You won’t find high volume, conveyor belt automatic painting at Basso. Each of our aluminum and steel frame receives the same quality of individual hand spraying by master painters, regardless of price range. First, the entire frame is treated with anti-corrosion material and primer. The beautiful color is produced from up to five layers of the finest European paint.

Our carbon fiber frames are treated with a special anti-UV ray resin material that also protects against superficial scratches that could damage the fibers. Next, the frame gets three additional layers of elite quality paint. All of this extraordinary care fortifies your frame against the sun and helps your bike to look fresh and impressive for many years

Basso for your safety & piece of mind.

Each tube used in our frames is designed by a modern CAD software that allows us to verity its structural load and its reaction to stress. Every new project undergoes specific tests, both destructive and stress-resistant, born from Basso experience. Those tests have been developed to guarantee safety and performance of our products for our customers. Such tests, together with non-destructive static tests, are also performed during manufacturing process on some sample frames, selected within each production lot.

Basso guarantee every single frame from manufacturing faults for a period of 36 months from date of purchase. Microtech components as well as carbon fiber forks are guaranteed for 36 months from date of purchase. Look for the form containing the warranty terms on your Basso frame or bicycle. Register the purchase of your bike or frame by mailing the warranty card or by filling out the web form at www.bassobikes.com/warranty.
