Some partnerships go beyond simple, cold business relationships. Sometimes they are born out of empathy and a desire to share a passion, whether it's to show a new route or a drink with friends after an adrenaline-fueled exploration on gravel.

And just like that, the collaboration between Basso and Enough Cycling Collective was born.

BASSO PALTA ENOUGH SPECIAL EDITION 2023

But what is Enough Cycling Collective?

The idea came together in 2021, out of a desire to encourage people to experience cycling in its most diverse forms.

The spirit of the collective is that a bike is enough, it's all you need to be happy.

BASSO PALTA ENOUGH SPECIAL EDITION 2023

Even better if it's gravel, as the folks at Enough Cycling think that no other discipline combines performance and camaraderie, fun and grit like gravel. This is the most inclusive form of cycling there is, anyone can feel welcome and fit in.

In just three years Enough Cycling have risen to international prominence, filling their calendar with events to participate in, and win! From the renowned Kansas gravel of Unbound to the wild valleys of Kyrgyzstan's Silk Road Mountain race; from the Kenyan savannah to the volcanic craters of Iceland.

Alongside the enthusiasm of Enough Cycling, Basso created a custom version of the all-new Palta.

The design reflects Enough Cycling's concept for 2023: in between. That is, everything in between between competition and pure recreation.

The design of this custom Palta comes with a new layout, characterized by a clear horizontal line, right in the middle, in between. Great things happen in the middle, between the asphalt and dirt, right where the gravel world finds its place. The design is dominated by purple, Enough Cycling's emblematic color, while the rest of the palette is an evolution of tradition and matches the jersey that will be used throughout the race season by the collective.

The unique logo on the fork has been an identifying feature since the very first Enough Cycling bike and it is also features on the frame.

The bike is equipped with a Campagnolo Ekar groupset and Levante carbon wheels.

The Paradigma stem system allows for complete cable integration and is complemented with the Basso gravel carbon handlebar.

The collective started the race season in February at the Atlas Mountain Race in Morocco and they will close the season in Patagonia in November at the Across Andes. In between: USA, Kenya, Iceland, Catalonia, Italy...

The bike used in races by the collective is, of course, the customized Basso Palta and is now available to the public.
