Introducing the Basso Astra
Versatility and completeness
Underpinned by over 40 years of bike building and - rare at this price - manufacture that is 100% in-housemade in Italy.The Astra frameset is constructed from 100% 3K Toray HM (Hi Modulus) carbon fibre. In line with its heritage, this model maintains itsvocation for road cycling,but the attention to detail has made it lighter, more stableand more comfortable. It'slight enough to push boundaries without pushing the carbon of the frame to the extreme.
The Astra also adopts Basso’s high-profile technological solutions.It borrows elements like the straight fork and rear triangle from the likes of the Diamante SV and operates in a similar level of reactive and responsive handling.
If both performance and aesthetics is important to you, Basso never fails to deliver on this point. You will love the fluid linesthat follow the tubing angles, alongside the exceptional paintwork. The small details are what matters, such as the seatpostmade to work in conjunction with the 3B Clamp System Gen 2 (pat). Thanks to this technology, the seatpost will be separated from the frame by a vibration-absorbing rubber leading to increased riding comfort.
Geometry
That meansthe bikeis well suited for everyday riders wanting performance gains, but average flexibility, as opposed to professional riderswho spend weekly training sessionsbuilding, targettedstability and strength.
Astra’sgeometryharks to Basso heritage,derived from the steel models. It's a model that has gained improvements year after year. One preserved characteristic of the Astra is found in the racing DNA. This is a bike built for carvingthrough the hills and roads, simultaneously blendinga rider's desire forlightness, speed and pleasure.
