Basso is celebrating its 45th anniversary with a limited edition version of its flagship Diamante SV road bike.
“I wanted to create a bike without compromise, free to be the best expression of what Basso is today, of who I am. Forty-five years is a big part of life. I had the immense luck of being able to dedicate them to my vocation, building something day after day into which I poured all my passion, my dedication, my perseverance. Inside there are me, my family, all the people who have worked with us over the years. Over time, technologies have changed—the approach to cycling, the world that gravitates around it. Yet, even though a lot has changed in recent years, some things remain unchanged. Forty-five years ago, this adventure started with the same aim that we pursue today—to create the best riding experience,” boasts Alcide Basso, founder of the vaunted Italian brand.
Not surprisingly, only 45 limited edition Diamante SV road bikes will be available, which will come equipped with a Campagnolo Super Record EPS 12-speed groupset, a Lightweight Meilenstein wheelset and Selle Italia’s super-light a SLR Boost Tekno Superflow saddle.
Plus, each bike will include a special-edition Scicon Aerocomfort Road 3.0 TSA bike case.
There’s no word on pricing, as each limited edition Diamante SV is made to order. But, rest assured one will have to lay down plenty of lira for one.
