Lightweight Carbon Construction

Crafted with Torayca T1100 and T1000 fibers, the SV delivers an unmatched combination of stiffness, handling, and lightness.

Pedal Efficiency

Compared to other high-end models in the current Basso range, both bottom bracket (BB) and headtube (HT) stiffness have been significantly enhanced, while rear triangle stiffness at the axle has been maintained at a consistent level.

The 86.5 mm BB width provides a wide base for the downtube and chainstays, while the deep headtube design of 67.9 mm further improves handling precision, especially at high speeds and torque.

Enhanced Aerodynamics

The Basso team's focus on aerodynamics has been concentrated primarily on reducing the frontal impact area of the bike.

• Frontal impact area reduced by 16% compared to the Diamante SV (Diamante SV: 29,754 mm² → new SV: 24,993 mm²)

• Front wheel seamlessly integrated into the downtube to minimise airflow disruption (optimised for 28–35 mm tyres)

• Truncated airfoil tube design applied across all tube sections to improve aerodynamic efficiency

The Development Team

The Basso Bikes R&D team worked closely with the 4Performance bike fitting studio and Mattia De Marchi — a collaboration built on mutual trust and a shared vision.

Mattia tested the bike from the very beginning, providing valuable feedback throughout development. This partnership produced an in-depth analysis of biomechanics and ergonomics specifically tailored to real-world riders. The result is a precisely engineered bike that allows each rider to fine-tune their SV to match their unique riding style, capabilities, and body structure.

Geometry and Fit

Each SV is built to individual specifications, offering a choice of 7 frame sizes, 16 integrated handlebar options in 2 distinct designs, and 2 seatpost setback choices — ensuring a perfect fit for every rider.

Its high stack design and 25 mm shorter seat tube deliver optimal positioning and lasting comfort for every ride.

Frame Geometry

Tire Clearance

Supporting tyres up to 35 mm on 25 mm internal rim width, the SV bridges the gap between aero performance and all-road versatility — offering exceptional balance between speed, compliance, confidence and safety on all surfaces.

The ability to accommodate wider tyres makes the bike adaptable for mixed-surface riding, including cobblestones and rough tarmac, expanding the range of terrain you can explore.

The Science of Materials

The 3B Clamp System Gen II is a game-changer in vibration absorption, seamlessly combining cutting-edge technology with sleek design. Invisible on the frame, it integrates a rubber gusset and features a vulcanised steel plank, enhancing comfort and effectively dampening vibrations.

Complementing the 3B Clamp, the extended 380mm seatpost and sloping geometry further elevate compliance — ensuring that even the most challenging surfaces feel noticeably smoother.
