3T unveils e-Racemax, e-Ultra and e-Extrema with X20 System
3T refreshes its electric range with three models that retain the frames and aesthetics of their muscle‑powered platforms, integrating X20 System for light, natural assistance.
Three ways to interpret e‑gravel
- e‑Racemax: aimed at fast gravel and road riding, from smooth asphalt to rough pavé, while leveraging the aero‑gravel philosophy.
- e‑Ultra: geometry for tougher dirt tracks and a more upright position; in Flatbar form it’s a versatile choice for urban use and mixed riding.
- e‑Extrema: new all‑terrain model ready for technical singletracks, with tyre clearance from 47 to 57 mm (WAM).
Frames & design: continuity without compromise
The e‑bikes use the same carbon frames as the non‑electric versions; electronics, cabling and battery sit inside the downtube, avoiding oversized sections or external add‑ons. The added weight versus the muscle platforms is claimed between 3 and 3.9 kg, preserving handling and ride feel.
MAHLE X20 System: assistance that feels natural
The motor sits in the rear hub, delivering smooth, progressive support and no resistance when switched off. The X20 System for 3T provides up to 65 Nm of torque and an internal 350 Wh battery. Riders can extend autonomy with the 173 Wh External Battery (1.1 kg) mounted in the bottle cage. Control is via the LED top‑tube button; the system includes Bluetooth/ANT+, Garmin compatibility, three preset assistance modes and a fourth fully customisable via MySmartBike.
e‑Racemax, e‑Ultra and e‑Extrema expand 3T’s gravel reach with the looks and handling riders already know, now with the intelligent assistance of X20 System.
