Basso Palta Gravel 2024 road test review Construction quality
The general quality of the Basso PALTA GRAVEL 2024 is very good, the assemblies are good, as is the range of available sizes and colors.
It doesn't cost a fortune, and has excellent value for money.
Basso Palta Gravel 2024 road test review Frame
The frame is perfectly made.
Specific geometries for gravel, integrated cable routing, all very well made.
Perhaps more could have been done with the available sizes, the only limitation of this bicycle.
Good weight, 8.6kg for the Campagnolo assembled version in size S.
Basso Palta Gravel 2024 road test review Assemblies
Assembled with the Campagnolo group it does not cost very much, around 4800 euros, there is nothing particularly sophisticated about it, but overall it is a good gravel bicycle.
At the same price it has very few rivals, to get better you have to spend a lot more.
Basso Palta Gravel 2024 road test review Comfort
Very good, the comfort is very good and even superior to many competing carbon frames.
Beaten only by the much more expensive amortized frames.
Comfort could still improve with a better saddle.
Bass PALTA GRAVEL 2024 test test review Guide
A true 360 degree gravel bike, stable, safe, easy to handle just enough to still remain safe on descents and on the most damaged stretches of asphalt or off road.
Very easy and intuitive to drive, it is also very valid on very narrow and guided routes, but also ensures very profitable driving on fast routes.
Braking is also very good.
Stable and safe at high speeds.
On the road it is similar to riding an endurance racing bike, safe, comfortable and easy to ride.
Off road it prefers fast, flat routes with hard and smooth surfaces, true gravel routes.
On the other hand, it is less effective when the off-road becomes more difficult and technical, almost like a mountain bike.
A nice frame, safe, easy on the road, but also with excellent general off-road performance.
Basso Palta Gravel road test review Performance
It's a very fast gravel bike, especially in its price range.
Its performance is in line with other models of similar weight, often even more expensive.
Very good performance on flat terrain, on flat and fast surfaces.
Only on the most difficult climbs is the overall weight of the bicycle noticeable, but in line with the type of bike
It only loses on really difficult routes, hard climbs, where almost all gravel bikes are in difficulty.
On plains and hills, wherever you can let the bike run, it has top-of-the-class performance.
Basso Palta Gravel 2024 road test review Pros and cons
A gravel bike that is not expensive but still of quality and with high performance.
Its flaw is that as a gravel bike it prefers flat and fast, not very technical routes.
The advantages include its general performance, versatility and driving safety.
Among the limitations is a non-capillary sales network.
