3T Strada Italia - Aero Superbike Made In Italy

[@lee1210mk2]

Always loved 3T frames. Fantastic setup!

[@ronykuba]

Glad you like it!

[@kidsafe]

Stack-to-reach ratio is almost like an endurance bike compared to the normal Strada.

[@ronykuba]

Not great for me, but great for most people

[@osobazjebanana]

wow new red ;)

[@ronykuba]

Yep, rather nice

[@JibbaJabber]

Roni, swap it for the Rosso! A stunning contrast with the black. After all, it's got the new 'Red' groupset. Also, looks like that bike has got a more relaxed geometry. Something that I could ride daily.

[@ronykuba]

Might consider, but it’s not my favourite. The bare carbon is just stunning. Yes, it’s not as racy as others. For most people it’s a good thing too. I will compensate for that with my cockpit setup.

[@grantrutenberg2847]

Ron it would be so interesting to learn what the differences between all your bikes are, that translate into real world performance benefits and gains? It would help educate us as to what makes one bikes design better than the other at the highest level. Thank you!

[@ronykuba]

We will be posting more stuff like that about all three bikes soon.

[@gravelcyclingcanada]

I like it!

[@DDai-qd8uk]

I like how they offer all of 4 sizes and weird slack seat tube and head tube angles on all size. Think you made a typo in your title- it says superbike.

[@ronykuba]

More sizes will be added soon, so that’s an invalid argument. As for the angles - the seattube angle is designed this way to make no need for a setback seatpost. The head tube angle is designed for stability, which just works - I have set new PRs on all of my local descents. So no, no typo here.

[@DDai-qd8uk]

Mhm, looking forward to hearing your real thoughts on this endurance frame once your sponsor changes.

[@ronykuba]

@@DDai-qd8uk I don’t choose products from brands I don’t like

[@mikicastan]

Very nice bike! Those chainrings looks replecable from powermeter,same like on mtb

[@ronykuba]

Thanks. Yes, might as well be - I didn’t have any information about that.

[@gianandreagaltieri1767]

Great bike, but is it legal to show a bike on inner chainring ?

[@ronykuba]

From what I can see, the bike is on grass.

[@skasterenvan3480]

nice video, I pre ordered my Strada Italia Roso frame set already 5 weeks ago but not sure when it will be delivered as I require a 58cm size and not sure the production mall to make the frame is already finalized. I will build it with the Shimano Dura Ace 12 speed Di2 and ENVE 4.5 wheelset 😄 I cannot wait until it will be delivered at my LBS to get it build 😍.

[@ronykuba]

Nice build! Not a fan of Enve though since they’re hookless.

[@skasterenvan3480]

@@ronykuba still have the “old SES 4.5” ( not hook less) as they came from my previous custom model Strada that I crashed 8 weeks ago, so get a complete new build except my ENVE wheels from 2021 will be reused.

[@ronykuba]

@@skasterenvan3480 4.5s disc wheels haven been hookless since they were released in 2016

[@skasterenvan3480]

@@ronykuba you are right, I made a mistake, I have the SES 5.6. ☺

[@ronykuba]

@@skasterenvan3480 yep, those are good

[@bet609]

can regular stem work with this frame? like the strada asia?

[@ronykuba]

Probably yes. I will know more when I get my own frame.

[@lemonshire1]

How did you manage to get the new Sram Red???

[@ronykuba]

I didn’t, this is the top build of the bike.

[@lemonshire1]

So it was supplied to you. I'm still surprised that you have it/can use it/show it on camera either way

[@ronykuba]

@@lemonshire1 the release date is today.

[@lemonshire1]

Ah yes, I see the videos now. Yours was one of the first I think

[@JFomo]

New sram!!!

[@ronykuba]

Yep

[@gabrielsteck3199]

Is this bike good for climbing?

[@ronykuba]

It’s light and stiff, so definitely

[@ynslife]

What color are you getting?

[@ronykuba]

This bare carbon version like on the video

[@ynslife]

@@ronykuba was thinking the same but the ready to paint seems also interesting wonder what company can paint it properly though... know any? (in europe)

[@ronykuba]

@@ynslife yes I have a supplier for that

[@pierrex3226]

Didn't know they made the frames in Italy. So it's resin transfer like what Time does in Slovakia, instead of using prepreg? The launch photos you showed are dark and blurry AF, it's like they're doing their best to hide the bike, it looks pretty stupid to me.

[@ronykuba]

It’s much more advanced than what Time does, but it does use RTM

[@Factoryseconds123]

​@@ronykuba Hard to argue "much more advanced." They're using different processes. Direct comparison hard to do without actual technical information.

[@ronykuba]

@@Factoryseconds123 I know it, as I have seen it and have all the information.

[@Factoryseconds123]

@@ronykuba 3T has to use spray adhesive to hold the dry fibers together during layup. Time is braiding the fibers together with no need to spray glue to hold them together before resin infusion. That's what I know about the two processes. Not really sure how anyone can say which one is better or worse. Also the bike was designed by Vroomen which is probably a major negative 😅

[@ronykuba]

@@Factoryseconds123 that’s not true at all 🙃 apparently you have no clue about the process. As I said, what 3T use is much more advanced as there are infinitely more design/layup possibilities with that process.

[@batbawls]

Not a super fan of the looks, but it's entirely subjective

[@ronykuba]

It’s not traditional, that’s for sure

[@Mandok.]

I find it very ugly. the design seems the same for at least ten years, they modified the front following the latest trends, I wonder what research they have done in terms of aerodynamics. I understand looking for things that are refined and different from the usual, but carbon is now a business of the orientals. the skills are in the East. this is demonstrated by the difficulty in innovation that little brands like this have.

[@ronykuba]

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder 🙃

[@Gufolicious]

One of the worst looking frames i have ever seen.

[@ronykuba]

Ok

[@lemonshire1]

I agree

[@unklesannjay]

shill

[@ronykuba]

Yess
