Designed to be the perfect gravel race machine: The Racemax (Integrale) frameset is fastest with 700c 35-45mm WAM tires. Built like this its top speed rivals the best road bikes out there. Whether you’re on asphalt, easy or tough gravel, you can be confident that you have the fastest setup on the start line. WPNT = WE PAINT! "WPNT" stands for "We Paint": a statement that, with the opening of 3T’s new paint facility in Montello (Bergamo province), just a few kilometers from HQ, ideally complements the brand’s slogan: "We Dream We Build We Ride." This strategic investment in painting—3T’s last step to fully control its production process from carbon fiber to a complete, ready-to-ride bike—brings multiple advantages: A broader range of color options, thanks to the flexibility to produce smaller quantities in specific colors compared to the standards imposed by Asian production. Greater responsiveness to customer demand, as specific preferences can now be produced within 6-8 weeks. Enhanced control over this critical phase of production, where quality checks are essential to deliver aesthetically flawless products. Reduced environmental impact, with clear savings in transportation needs. Whether riding road or gravel, we love speed. So everything on the RaceMax frame is engineered for that. The end result is a fast gravel bike that: Looks like a road bike Rides like a road bike Rips through gravel Best of all, the very same RaceMax frame can be built up with a focus on pure speed with 35-45mm WAM tires in 700c or it can also be turned into an unstoppable machine with very wide 650b tires up to 61mm WAM. Handy for that epic ride or trip abroad. And with two wheelsets, you can switch between the two setups easily. That’s RaceMax. 3T INTEGRALE AERO CABLE INTEGRATION Running cables internally can be nice and potentially reduce aero drag, but what is the point if you end up with a very wide and bulky headtube with oversized bearings to house the cables? Our goal was to hide the cables but keep the headtube narrow. Quite the puzzle but the result is stunning. To top it off, the cables hide inside the 3T Apto Integrale, using the original minimalist Apto shape but with cable guidance. Beauty meets functionality as this gives you full adjustability of the carbon bar (or even the possibility to change the bar with another 3T carbon bar) to find the perfect fit. Because aerodynamics are meaningless if you cannot comfortably hold your aero position. RaceMax (Integrale) is compatible with SRAM and Shimano electronic drivetrains, both 2x and 1x. Starting from our favorite tires, we then engineered a perfectly fitting rear wheel cutout (with mud clearance of course) and a closely trailing downtube to catch the airflow coming off the front tire. We added a super-narrow headtube (yet with a big steerer inside it), a multi-shape fork and aero details from seatstay to seatpost and from the shielded water bottle to the direct-attachment brake mounts. Most importantly, we engineered this for realistic riding speeds, wind speeds, tire widths, bottle positions and even for mud. We don’t care if it is theoretically fast in the windtunnel with a fantasy spec. We care if it is fast the way you ride it in real world conditions.
