Description

The 3T Strada Frameset revolutionizes the gravel bike concept by merging the aerodynamic and performance qualities of a road bike with the rugged capabilities of a gravel bike. This unique frameset, named RaceMax, is designed to optimize speed across various terrains. It looks, rides, and handles like a road bike but excels when ripping through gravel, offering unparalleled versatility and performance.

The RaceMax frameset achieves this hybrid functionality thanks to its ability to accommodate a wide range of tire sizes. It can be set up with 35-46mm WAM tires for maximum speed on smoother surfaces or outfitted with tires up to 61mm WAM for superior traction and control on more challenging terrains. This adaptability makes it ideal for local rides or international adventures, with the ability to switch between two wheelsets effortlessly.

From its engineered rear wheel cutout that provides optimal mud clearance to the aerodynamically shaped downtube that trails closely behind the front tire, every aspect of the RaceMax is designed for efficiency. It features a super-narrow headtube housing a robust steerer, a multi-shape fork, and integrated aerodynamic enhancements from the seatstay to the seatpost, including a shielded water bottle and direct-attachment brake mounts. Importantly, the RaceMax is engineered for real-world conditions, prioritizing performance at realistic riding speeds and common wind conditions, rather than just theoretical wind tunnel scenarios.

The RaceMax excels with standard tire configurations but maintains about 90% of its aerodynamic efficiency even with the maximum tire width, ensuring it is fast and effective no matter the setup. Whether navigating smooth asphalt or tackling rough gravel, the 3T Strada Frameset stands as a pinnacle of modern bike design, tailored to deliver speed and adaptability in any environment.
