Next-Level Aerodynamics, Comfort & Performance
The 3T Strada Italia is a high-performance road frameset for all roads. Built to maximize the rider's efforts with a perfect balance between comfort and aerodynamics. High levels of reactiveness & efficiency mean the more you push, the more it gives back. But it doesn't forget that comfortable is fast. And an aero bike is nothing without an aerodynamic position. Plus it's optimized for 30-35mm WAM road tires, which means it's designed to get the best out of wider, more comfortable tires.
Like everything in the Italia, line, the Strada is developed and manufactured in Italy in the same Bergamo factory as the RaceMax Italia and Extrema Italia, built using filament winding + RTM technology to give their engineers complete control over the carbon layup process. As is tradition for the Italia family, all the Strada Italia frames include a small transparent section. This window allows you to appreciate the beauty of the carbon fiber weave. You'll find this in the 3 and T on the downtube.
Features:
- MINIMALIST CROWN: Instead of a bulky, un-aero crown, we minimize its size. This improves the crown's aerodynamics and moves the front wheel closer to the downtube, creating a perfect transition for the airflow.
- SQAERO FORK LEGS: Deep and thin fork blades with great brake integration & asymmetric profiles. Sqaero fork airfoil only has a small truncation, perfect to guide the airflow around the front wheel and boost fork stiffness.
- NARROW & DEEP HEADTUBE: Narrow is aero. Deep guides the airflow. All cables inside.
- BIG STEERER: Inside the narrow headtube is a steerer with a large 1.5" lower section for best strength and stiffness.
- 3T MINMAX INTEGRALE HEADSET: To fit this big 1.5" steerer inside the narrow headtube cups, they use custom ultra-sleek high-load headset (IS42/34 | IS47/38-36°)
- DOWNTUBE WITH NARROW NECK AND EXTRA WIDE BODY: Shields the bottles and cleans up the airflow mess as it passes over the front wheel for a complete aerodynamic system.
- MAXIMIZED CURVED CUT-OUT: The curved seattube covers more of the rear wheel giving an aero advantage while also providing extra comfort (vertical compliance).
- TIRE CLEARANCE: Fits tires up to 35mm WAM and 347mm RAM, while keeping 4mm between any frame part and tire.
- DIRECT-MOUNT BRAKES: Standard forks and frames require a flip-flop adaptor to set the correct brake rotor size. Direct-mount pre-sets the caliper for 160mm rotors without any extra pieces.
- DESIGNED SOLELY FOR ELECTRONIC GROUPSETS: Compatible with SRAM and Shimano electronic drivetrains + Campagnolo Super Record Wireless.
- REMOVABLE FD MOUNT: To run a 1x transmission sleek and clean.
- REAR DROPOUT UDH : Future proof and standardized RD hanger, compatible with all standard rear mechs.
- Frame: Strada Italia Integrale (2x with removable FD hanger)
- Frame material: 3T's in-house filament-winding using a combination of high-strength/high-stiffness fibers, combined with RTM resin injection.
