Eeeshk.... I saw the first pic and thought it was one of the nicest bikes I'd ever seen but then I saw the side profile.... Hmmm

Gorgeous...... wheels, groupset.......meh frame. Odd looking front end.

That Basso is rank...if SsangYong made a bike, that would be it.

Eamonnator

Does it come in black?

The tax man

Looks slightly better with the extra bits used at the headset and not slamming the stem. That frame in Plastik's pictures looks like a massive frame which doesn't help. I'd still prefer a Basso Loto.:p

The race machine getting ready for some use for the first time in a long time. Truly an image of beauty!

Big ring
No bottles
Small sprocket at the back
Right crank in forward position
Better quality pic!

Not to mention; matching bottle cages.

It was in storage. The kitchen was dark. The bottle cage broke in transit...
Almost an image of beauty then!

She is lovely. If only I knew how to pronounce Kuota. Quota? Kew-otta?

As for the bar tape, white is a nightmare. I give 2 finger to convention, both of my bikes have white saddles and red bar tape. Red would look good on that bike.

Agreed re. the white tape. I'd a Giant a few years back with it, total nightmare.

But I'd go with black on this bike, it would look mean as hell with black IMO.

Lovely bike indeed.

Cheers man I just go with Kharma Hadn't considered red tape I have black here so I'll throw that on and see how she looks first.

black tape makes all bikes look 100% more bad-ass. the white tape that came on my last bike didnt see the light of day.

For me the matched stem looks wrong, I think the balance is upset with coloured stem and silver seatpost.
