Basso Palta II

False Flat is delighted to offer the limited edition Palta ARTBound to celebrate the 2025 Unbound Gravel race.

The Palta is Basso's performance gravel bike, perfectly adapted to gravel races, cross rides or epic multi-day trips. Light, stiff, quick, handsome and hand crafted in Italy. We love the Palta and are always impressed by its pace on gravel, tarmac or the rough stuff.

Cycling News captured it in their glowing 4.5 / 5 star review. 'The Palta II is still every bit as racy as the outgoing model, dispatching gravel and tarmac with the same feverish desire for speed. It encourages you to turn the pedals and attack on the flats, climbs and descents alike.'

Here the bikes are shown with Sram Rival groupset and the striking Fulcrum Sharq wheelset upgrade except the handpainted ARTBound Limited Edition which comes only with Shimano GRX 820 groupsets if you order as a complete bike.

Please contact us if you would like to configure the ARTbound with different groupset options.
