What Our Gearhead(R) Experts Are Saying:"The Rival/GX mullet setup gives my hands road-style brake and shift ergonomics, while the Eagle Transmission drivetrain handles the kind of range that the technical descents and loaded climbs I ride demand. The platform stays composed on rough terrain because the geometry keeps weight centered, which lets the drivetrain do its job across a full day in the mountains."The 3T Ultra 2 Italia is built on Fusion Carbon, a construction method developed at 3T's Presezzo facility that combines filament winding and Resin Transfer Moulding with elements of traditional layup. The continuous-fiber structure that defines 3T's Italian-made frames is preserved across the hybrid process, bringing Made-in-Italy manufacturing within reach of a wider range of riders. Heads up! We do our best to keep bike specs and images current, but occasional component changes can happen without warning, and sometimes the photos might not show the exact build you'll receive.
