Couldn't load pickup availability
The 3T Primo Apex XPLR AXS 1X12 700c is a new gravel bike, available in sizes M and L. The build combines a SRAM drivetrain, a FSA crankset and Fulcrum wheels: an option for riders who want to explore gravel routes, alternating between roads and unpaved tracks.
The Primo Apex brings 3T's first aerodynamic gravel frame, originally named Exploro, to your adventures.
- Carbon frame: The Primo frame uses unidirectional pre-preg carbon with a mixed high-modulus and high-strength layup, paired with the Fango 3T fork.
- AXS single-chainring drivetrain: The SRAM Apex XPLR AXS rear derailleur handles 12 speeds, with a 11-44T cassette and a FSA Omega BB386EVO 42T crankset.
- SRAM hydraulic disc brakes: The SRAM Apex AXS braking system uses hydraulic disc brakes with 160 mm SRAM rotors.
- Fulcrum wheels: The 700c Fulcrum Rapid Red 900 wheels have an internal width of 22mm and are tubeless ready.
- Gravel tyres: The Pirelli Cinturato Gravel M tyres are sized 700x40 and complete the wheel setup.
Choose it if you are looking for a gravel bike with a build that includes a 3T Superergo Pro handlebar and a Selle Italia Modello X Superflow saddle.
