Though only a few years young, MAAP and Basso’s relationship has grown exponentially through a shared commitment to design, innovation and, without question, riding our brains out.

For more than 35 years, the Basso family have been making it all happen at their factory located in Bassano del Grappa – a small slice of Italian heaven. And last year, we teamed up to create a limited edition MAAP colorway of the Diamante, designed here at MAAP. This year, in the spirit of progression, we’ve joined forces once again to create an exclusive MAAP colorway for the Diamante SV (Super Veloce) – a 100% made in Italy superbike.

Weighing in at 820 grams with a 390 gram fork, the Diamante SV features 100% 3K Torayca High Modulus Carbon Fiber in T1000 and T800, the highest tensile strength from Torayca’s range. It’s aerodynamic geometry, wing shaped seat tube and rear stays housing is made to perform at the highest level in race and crit settings. Proudly built up by local Melbourne bike shop, Saint Cloud, they’re ready to ride.

“After the MAAP Diamante Edition, the expectations for this collaboration were very high. The first collaborative frame between MAAP and Basso received brought a fresh style in the road which saw love from all parts of the world. With the Diamante SV MAAP Edition, we’re continuing that spirit of progression marrying a one-of-a-kind design and creative perspective with our the most aero frame we build.”
