BASSO ASTRA DISC Shimano Ultegra R8020 34/50 Road Bike Grey 2022

Due to delays in global supply chains, Manufacturer may have replaced some original components with equivalent or higher quality components. In some cases, the bike delivered may differ from the images.

For almost 30 years, the Astra model has been handmade in the Basso factory in north-eastern Italy. The latest in this long line of prestigious frames is one that the entire Basso staff is very proud of. It represents the accumulated knowledge and experience from building the five previous models.

2021 Astra goes further than any version before it and does so with a good dose of style. Built entirely in-house by the experienced hands of Basso's staff, the latest version of the Astra model features a host of technologies sourced from its upper-tier siblings and features a design that follows an even closer family feel than ever before.

Astra combines the proven and rider-tested Basso geometry with a sophisticated tubular structure that delivers greater efficiency in both form and function. In addition to the aerodynamics provided by the tube profiles, the new model is also more efficient due to the functional properties of the carbon structure.

A larger, more massive head tube combines with an extremely efficient down tube, which is further enhanced by a special shape. Both tubes couple with completely redesigned chainstays to provide fantastic power transmission through a solid, responsive complete unit of lower tubes (head tube, down tube, chainstays).

Add to the prestigious structure of the new model several design features most often found in higher-priced offerings and you have not only a podium-worthy road bike, but also one that promises fantastic performance. The integrated seatpost clamp, internal cables, high-quality paint and an extremely reduced - sophisticated graphic design make for a beautiful ride that is well above its peers in terms of technology, performance, reliability and value.
