SRAM no sooner unveiled its new Force eTap AXS 12-speed electronic groupset today, bike brands across the industry started vying for some of the limelight.
Indeed, 3T rolled out the latest version of its popular “go anywhere, do anything” STRADA and STRADA DUE aero road bikes, complete with SRAM’s new Force eTap AXS groupset, as well as a fire engine red paint scheme for the 1X model.
Since the new Force is available in both 1X and 2X configurations, it’s only fitting that 3T would offer two variants.
Both bikes retain the same frame construction and FUNDI PRO fork as before, along with 160mm rotors both front and rear.
