Italian Bike Specialist Basso Launches The Volta Electric Gravel Bike via InsideEVs
With e-bike tech advancing at an unprecedented pace, we’re seeing more and more for-sport e-bikes with an emphasis on real-world usability and versatility. A good example of this is the Volta, from Italian bike specialist Basso. Known for its handcrafted bikes, Basso’s newest creation hopes to hit multiple birds with one stone – from sporty road riding, adventurous gravel adventures, and urban excursions, this bike hopes to do it all.
Basso presents the Volta as a masterpiece of engineering, combining lightness and sturdiness, in an adaptable and versatile package capable of covering multiple terrains. Crafted from a featherlight carbon frame and fork, the Volta weighs in at a mere 15.2 kilograms. This lightweight construction is complemented by generous tire clearance, accommodating up to 45mm tires, making it ready to handle all sorts of terrain.
As mentioned earlier, the Basso Volta seeks to provide some real-world practicality aside from being a sporty platform. For example, the frame is equipped with mounts for mudguards, luggage racks, and a dynamo hub capable of powering essential accessories such as your bike's lights or charging your devices on the go. For a more comfortable ride, Basso came up with an ingenious design for the Volta’s frame.
