CREATORS OF ONE OF THE FIRST PURE GRAVEL BIKES IN THE WORLD
Long known for its Italian design and high-performance components, 3T took a bold leap in 2016 with the launch of the Exploro—a groundbreaking aero gravel bike that blurred the lines between road and off-road.
While some were surprised by the move into complete bikes, for those familiar with 3T’s legacy, it felt like a natural evolution. The Exploro marked a shift toward innovation and integration, combining aerodynamic engineering with the emerging gravel scene—well before it became mainstream.
This wasn’t about mass production, but performance, precision, and a distinctly European sense of craftsmanship. From collaborating with Gerard Vroomen to producing carbon frames in-house in Italy, 3T’s transition from cockpit components to complete bikes wasn’t a pivot—it was the next chapter for a brand that’s always led from the front.
