How to Choose a 3T Bike
3T bikes are designed for different riding styles, from fast road training sessions to gravel roads and more challenging routes. When choosing a bike, start by considering the terrain, your preferred pace and whether you need electric assistance.
- Gravel bikes. Primo is a versatile choice for tarmac and gravel roads, RaceMax focuses more on speed, while Ultra and Extrema are designed for rougher terrain and wider tyres.
- Road bikes. Strada models are built for sporty road riding, training and racing.
- Electric bikes. 3T electric gravel bikes provide pedal assistance, which can be useful on climbs and longer rides.
What to Look for When Choosing a 3T Bike
Once you've chosen a suitable model, compare frame sizes and specifications. Frame geometry affects riding position and handling, tyre width influences grip and comfort on different surfaces, while the drivetrain and wheels affect ride characteristics and price.
3T bikes are also available in different frame production lines, including WPNT and Italia. When comparing them, consider the specifications, manufacturing technologies and price of each model.
