JUNE 2020 T3 3Gadgets that showcase the
very best that design and
technology have to offer
SHOWSTOPPER
Aside from having a truly cracking name – to T 3 ’s ears at least – 3T also has the rep of making some of the lightest-weight
bikes out there. This means that its collaboration with BMW, a brand synonymous with performance, quality and comfort,
was always destined to be something of a humdinger. The 3T for BMW Exploro brings the best of the former’s Exploro
gravel bike range and adds the engineering panache one would expect from a Beemer. Not only does it have an
aerodynamically optimised unidirectional prepreg carbon frame, it also comes with Fulcrum wheels and Schwalbe G-One
Speed tyres to maximise grip no matter what your speed. It also offers excellent control, coming with Shimano GRX shift

3T FOR BMW EXPLORO
CRANK IT UP
Perhaps nothing better symbolises the precision
of 3T for BMW Exploro than its Torno crank.
Weighing just 300g, its razor-thin 12mm profile
is designed to slice through the air while its
carbon axle is also directly integrated into the
spider and drive-side crank arm, making for
a stiffer and lighter design
