Basso Diamante SV Disc Ultegra Di2 strings silk

In nature, the diamond is formed by years of pressure, resulting in a precious jewel whose beauty and timelessness knows no rival. The Basso Diamante is also the result of years of hard work, research and pressure to create the best road bike, timeless not only in terms of performance and reliability, but also in form and beauty.

Handcrafted, in Italy, by Basso, the Diamante is a true representation of what a classy, authentic Italian road bike should be. Basso engineers use only the finest high modulus carbon fiber from Toray and have developed a frame that offers efficient performance and will stand up to any terrain. Tube shapes and carbon layers allow for a responsive frame with a bottom bracket flex of only 0.4mm and a head tube torsion of an amazingly low 0.2mm. This represents a 50% improvement over previous models. The new frame, available in both disc and rim versions, has been optimized for up to 28mm tires, further increasing the Diamante's versatility.

The proven Basso geometry is joined by an elegant front end that allows the flexible rider to adopt an extremely aggressive position while allowing the more upright rider to maintain a more compact front end. If the look is good, then the Diamante has won the battle, as each fiber is designed to move faster and more efficiently. Its shape is an example of undeniable Italian design and class. Functional beauty and functionality: Basso Diamante.

Diamante
The Diamante follows in the footsteps of its predecessors. They all belong to the category of desirable road bikes. The classic lines, flawless geometry and rounded tube shapes come together in a whole that aims to deliver race-winning performance that lasts to create the perfect tool for the trade, no matter where, how or over what terrain you ride.

More than meets the eye
A competition frame eliminates all superfluous design elements and focuses on its core task: racing. The elegant and minimalist design hides the story of an extremely complex design. The finest materials, made with care and laid by hand after careful studies of material and shape behavior, give the frame a performance ride that quickly overcomes the emotions of even the most demanding cyclist.

Drive like no other
Stable, responsive, efficient and manageable as if it had four wheels instead of two, the Diamante is a versatile road racing bike that can be used anywhere and in any type of racing situation. A great geometry and fantastic workmanship, combined with high-quality materials, contribute the details to its exceptionally versatile performance. The curved fork stands out from the conventional design and provides a lot of stability.

Integrated Front-End
The head tube/top tube connection offers another example of unconventional design, as it allows the headset to sit under the top tube for not only a better ride, but also a cleaner aesthetic.

3B Clamp System
While integrated seatpost clamps are not uncommon, Basso's development goes beyond simply holding the seatpost in the desired position. The 3B seat post clamp is able to absorb vibrations and is also one of the most elegant and effective solutions.
