3T Racemax² Italia
Speed, integration, versatility and fun — elevated.
The 3T Racemax² Italia is the latest evolution of 3T’s race-focused gravel platform, handmade in Italy using 3T’s Jazz Carbon manufacturing process. Built for fast gravel, mixed surfaces and riders who want road-bike speed with real-world tyre clearance, every detail has been refined for efficiency, control and integration.
Compared with the previous generation, the Racemax² Italia brings updated geometry, increased tyre clearance, integrated downtube storage and a rear light built directly into the seatpost. The frame is aerodynamically optimised around real gravel tyre widths, with clearance up to 51 mm WAM in 1x setups and up to 48 mm WAM in 2x setups.

Why We Like It
The Racemax² Italia is built for riders who want a gravel bike that still feels fast, sharp and purposeful. It keeps the aerodynamic DNA of the original Racemax, but adds more clearance, cleaner integration and practical storage for modern gravel racing and fast all-road riding.
For riders looking for a premium Italian-made aero gravel bike with genuine race intent, the Racemax² Italia sits right at the sharp end of the category.
MADE IN ITALY, WITH JAZZ CARBON
TIRE CLEARANCE – UP TO 51 mm WAM
Since the launch of the first Racemax in 2020, tire trends have shifted towards wider profiles.
The Racemax² Italia now accommodates tires with a real width of up to 51 mm (Width-as-Measured) with 1x setups and up to 48 mm with 2x configurations.
INTERNAL STORAGE AND INTEGRATED REAR LIGHT
The clean design is enhanced by two new integration features:
The downtube houses a storage compartment that shields tools and tubes from the elements, with a wide opening and a secure and stable Fidlock closure.
The seatpost now integrates a practical rear light, perfectly aligned with the frame’s design.
1.5% FASTER THAN THE PREVIOUS GENERATION
Despite a slightly wider frontal area due to tyre size, simulations show that the Racemax² Italia is even more aerodynamic, with a measurable gain of 1.5%.
This improvement comes from even cleaner lines and details, such as front caliper bolts shielded by a cover plate.
Designed only for electronic groupsets.

Sachet Instructions
1. Grab your empty old bottle of Muc-Off. (You may need a pair of adjustable pliers to remove the trigger from the bottle). Or purchase our Bottle for Life.
2. Fill up to the shoulders of the bottle with 1 litre of lukewarm water for faster formula activation!
3. Carefully cut one corner of the sachet open along the diagonal cut lines.
4. You can carefully pour the sachet straight into the top of the bottle. Or using the box, fold the inside of the lid together using the printed lines as a guide and use this as a funnel to pour the powder into your bottle. (Please see our video for full instructions on this.
5. Screw your spray trigger back onto the top of the bottle. Ensure it’s tight!
6. Shake the bottle vigorously for 30-60 seconds to activate the formula. If you notice any undissolved powder simply keep shakin’ it!
