Info on the handlebar dimensions.

Can't see a thing here, but those numbers i had are from Mr. Basso himself.
That handlebar is new and not on their web yet.

I reuploaded the image. It probably wasn't displaying because the image was a .tiff and not a .jpg.

I also confirmed with Basso that the stem/bar is dedicated for this bike. You cannot use the Basso Integra bar/stem combo on this. So you're limited to only the -11°stems which come in 90-100-110-120-130 to adjust your fit.

Edit: The bar and stem are both aluminum so I imagine they'll be quite hefty items which you're stuck with.

Can that low of a drop really be true?
I just bought Lightweight Kompaktbügel to get less of a drop. However, i do notice that most handlebars are measured with a ramp angle of a few degrees, so if we put them with the top section horizontal, drop becomes deeper.

Is this an endurance frame? Stack height is really high relative to reach.

No, it is not. The stem is -11 so that 1cm you gain on prolonged fork length you loose on stem angle compared to -6 degree stem you would use normally on endurance bike.

Ok, it's actually 3cm taller than my Evo size 58. I already have to slam that, so this seems quite tall.

So the only options are their aluminum bar and stem? That seems such a shame for such a light carbon frame.

I would not be surprised to see a carbon stem and bar come down the pipeline given their capability.

Let's see, the -11 stem has a low stack height, so it'll be like a -12 stem.

The bar is aero shaped so it can't be aluminium.

I agree that I would have thought it was carbon given the shape, but Basso support said it was aluminum. They could not provide the weight of the bar unfortunately.

It could be. E.g, 3T aeronova pro and controltech cougar FL4.

That would be strange!
They have one combo and one handlebar so why would the new bike have alu and aero
It would have to be 3-D printed to have an aero shape.
I will double check with Leonard Basso. I have his mail.

[iamraymond]

That would be good to get confirmation. I also asked about using their Semi integrated stem which they state is suitable for the Diamante SV, but apparently it's not suitable for this new model. It would be ideal to be able to use any handlebar instead of being stuck with a proprietary bar.
