3T’s New Extrema Italia is Designed for Touring and Fast Bikepacking Races
3T’s latest innovation, the Extrema Italia, is a striking example of Italian craftsmanship and cutting-edge technology in the world of cycling. This bike is developed and made in 3T’s Italian carbon factory, ensuring a super responsive, tough, and comfortable frame with a unique look and feel. The Extrema Italia combines high-strength/high-stiffness fibers with RTM resin injection, all made in Italy, highlighting 3T’s commitment to quality and performance.
The Extrema Italia is designed for versatility and adventure, offering tire clearance up to 700x57c. This feature enables the bike to provide the same traction as top cross-country mountain bikes but with a much faster aero rider position and frame. It includes triple mounts on the fork legs for an anything cage, making it ideal for those who don’t want to leave home unprepared for any terrain.
One of the notable models in this lineup, the Extrema Italia Rival GX Eagle AXS, is tailored for racers with a penchant for adventure. It features SRAM Rival AXS road shifters, the indestructible Eagle T-Type mech, and a super versatile 10-52 cassette, combining road bike efficiency with rugged off-road capability. Additionally, it’s equipped with SRAM Rival AXS Hydraulic Disc brakes and a SRAM Rival Wide AXS, 40T chainring, ensuring reliability and performance in various conditions.
The Extrema Italia is available in several sizes (51, 54, 56, 58) and is offered at a price of US$7,999.00. Each bike is built to order within 8-12 weeks and is shipped fully assembled with gears, brakes, and headset tuned. All that’s required upon arrival is to insert the front wheel, mount the bars on the stem, and install the seatpost.
In summary, the 3T Extrema Italia stands out as a product of exceptional engineering, blending advanced manufacturing techniques with the rugged requirements of modern adventure cycling. Its unique design, coupled with its high-end components, makes it a compelling choice for cyclists who seek both performance and versatility.
