3T Exploro Race Ekar 1X13

The 3T Exploro Race Ekar 1X13 is the world's first full-aero gravel bike. This might seem like a bit overkill, until your getting blasted with headwind in the middle of the Maze district in Utah. The 3T Exploro Race Ekar was designed to get the closest performance combination from road bike speed and mountain bike versatility. This allows you to race the fast sections and fly over rougher terrain.

The Exploro Race Ekar come with Camagnolo's Ekar groupset that delivers crisp, clean, italian performance. The Ekar group comes with a 1x13 drivetrain, providing a massive gear range. This allows you to spin easily up steep terrain, and kick it into high gear on the descents. Pair this with world-class Ekar braking performance and you're sure to feel like you can push the limits.

The 3T Exploro Race comes with the Racemax frame which takes gravel frame technology to the far end of the universe. Providing unmatched aerodynamics and all-around capability. The frame and fork provide a massive range of tire options including, 700 and 650b compatible, up to 61mm (2.4"). This is an insane feature set to keep you rolling at high speed with unlimited tire options.

The Racemax fork was designed to provide minimal crown height that keeps the tire closer to the downtube (more aero) and lowers the front end (improved handling). 3T sought out a custom headset from Cane Creek that is narrower than a traditional headset but can handle the same amount of load. The fork also features fender mounts to keep the mud out of your face.

The final result of the 3T Exploro Race Ekar 1X13 is a gravel bike with road bike speed and off-road capabilities. Never before has there been an aero bike with so much tire clearance.
