3T Racemax Italia Force XPLR AXS 1X12
Product Details
The 3T RaceMax Italia Force XPLR AXS 1x12 Discus 45/40 CTi is a fast, race-ready gravel bike that blends aero efficiency, off-road capability, and handmade Italian craftsmanship. Built in Presezzo, Italy, the frame showcases 3T’s signature carbon engineering—crafted with precision using filament winding and RTM molding for top-tier strength, stiffness, and lightweight performance.
Engineered around 3T’s REALFAST tire integration system, the RaceMax uses real measured width and radius (WAM/RAM) of modern gravel tires to optimize aerodynamics in real-world conditions. With clearance for up to 61mm tires (on 650b wheels), deep tube shaping, and a tight rear wheel cutout, the Exploro RaceMax delivers serious speed on road and confidence off it.
This build is equipped with the wireless SRAM Force XPLR AXS 1x12 drivetrain, giving you a clean, precise setup with wide gearing and minimal fuss. Paired with a fully integrated 3T Aeroghiaia LTD cockpit and tubeless-ready Discus 45/40 CTi carbon wheels, it’s a complete performance package for gravel racing, adventure riding, or fast mixed-surface rides. Thanks to the MORE Integrale internal cable routing system, you also get a clean aesthetic and simplified service without sacrificing adjustability.
Whether you’re heading out for an all-out race or a long solo ride, the RaceMax Italia Force AXS delivers speed, simplicity, and Italian soul.
