Where speed meets exploration, and adventure becomes performance — this is Palta.
Palta redefines what gravel riding means. Not by chasing trends or fitting into a pre-written script, but by charting its own course — one rooted in Basso’s DNA. It’s proof that you don’t need a race number to push limits, and that exploration can be just as competitive as a finish line.
We didn’t follow gravel. We forged our own path.

Updated Geometry
Refinements were made to preserve Palta’s all-road versatility while enhancing ride feel and control.
Sloping Head Tube
A taller head tube offers better comfort and reduces the need for spacers. Racers can still run a low-stack setup thanks to a flush-mount stem option.

Evolved Design
The second generation of Palta builds on what riders loved in the original — refined where it matters, and uncompromising where it counts.
Advanced Fork Architecture
Engineered for precision and control, the redesigned fork also helps absorb vibration, improving overall ride quality over rough terrain.
 
3B Clamp System – Gen 2
An elegant, integrated seatpost clamp that disappears into the frame while boosting structural integrity.
Thanks to a vulcanized steel insert, it also adds vibration damping for a smoother ride — technology and aesthetics, working as one.
