February 20, 2024

Vicenza, Italy - February 20, 2024 - Basso Bikes, in collaboration with Campagnolo,
proudly unveils the Palta Vicenza Dream, a testament to Italian craftsmanship and
innovation in the world of cycling.

Directly from the research and development laboratories in Vicenza, the Palta Vicenza
Dream emerges as a symbol of excellence, featuring a unique and exclusive design born from the partnership between Basso Bikes and Campagnolo in occasion of the launch of their latest gravel components: Campagnolo Ekar GT and Zonda GT wheels.

A Brand New Palta Colorway
Designed to pay homage to the rich heritage of Vicenza, where both our companies are rooted, the Palta Vicenza Dream boasts a striking navy-blue color, complemented by a white finish crafted with a special painting technique, reminiscent of a mother-of-pearl watercolor effect.

The attention to detail is evident in the iridescent decals, featuring the iconic Basso
branding and the empowering slogan of Ekar GT, "Don't Hold Back", alongside Campagnolo's Winged Wheel emblem; all enhanced with a glossy finish for added
sophistication.
