Basso Palta II Enough White Gravel Bike (SRAM Rival XPLR AXS / MX25)
Basso x Enough: Season 2024
Enough Cycling Collective was born in 2021 from a fairly simple idea: a bike is enough to be happy!
The goal is to become the most inspiring cycling project around and to encourage people in experiencing cycling in its most diverse forms and – ultimately – to be happy
The Enough will continue its journey with Basso in 2024, opting once again for the Palta for races and adventures across the globe. This special team edition colorway will be avaialble for purchase on Palta, as a frame kit or complete build.
THE CONCEPT
Each season, the Collective adopts a concept guiding its communication and kit design, with the goal of conveying a message and cultivating a strong, ever-evolving visual identity.
The new concept, “Enjoy the trip“, launched this year (2024). It’s an invitation to relish the experience of riding bikes and embrace all the emotions it brings. Although the Collective aims to win races, it emphasizes that cycling should be enjoyable, not overly focused on performance and results. Instead, riding bikes is viewed as a means to free the mind and let it soar, particularly in adventure races, where physical limits are often pushed, leaving room for self-discovery, imagination, and deep reflection. The entire 2024 Enough Cycling kit takes a modern approach inspired by the 60s and 70s hippie and psychedelic culture.
A very special Palta
The Basso Palta stands out as one of the simplest yet most powerful pieces in such a kit. Total white with no visible logo from the side, it serves as a White Canvas, allowing anyone to imagine and paint in their mind, letting creativity take flight. The inner fork and rear stay details feature the pattern used for the Collective’s jersey, while the Basso logo is positioned under the downtube.
The Basso Palta II is a gravel bike for those who want to go on adventures without being limited by track conditions. It is perfectly adapted to gravel races, cross rides or epic multi-day excursions. The Palta is to the gravel world what the multitool is to your saddlebag… but without compromise.
With over 40 years of experience in developing efficient geometries, Basso has developed an innovative solution that combines both comfort and performance, ensuring fantastic handling in all situations. The specially designed Palta fork is fundamental to allow both great versatility in different terrains and a geometry that offers comfort and efficiency, while allowing almost road-like positioning when needed.
