So what I hear you say, all that matters is that a bike rides as it should. But in other ways it can matter. A bike’s terroir is a large component of what makes it, it. What draws many to one bike over another is the stuff only that bike has; not the stuff all bikes have.
Most high-end carbon road racing bikes are made in Taiwan ; only Basso carbon frames come out of the Basso carbon factory near Bassano Del Grappa.
ABOUT TERROIR
Terroir, a word associated with wine making, the back story to its production, relating to the composition of soil, grape variety, topography, climate, and the people that work the land and produce your favourite vino. It is about connection to place and people.
In a similar way, a bicycle has “terroir”, adding value through connection. Italian bikes are an iconic part of cycling history and it’s drama. Imagine yourself in beautiful, scenic, Italy, cycling heroically up a majestic mountain pass, descending daringly around hairpin bends, flashing past terraced vineyards, then riding full gas through an historic town packed with enthusiastic spectators, deserting the buzzing atmosphere of the local bars to cheer on every single rider in the race. Got the picture? Inspired? Whether it is a Sunday morning spin to your favourite coffee stop or something more challenging, make your own cycling story on a bike you love.
