3T Exploro Race EKAR 1x13 review

Dec 2020 · Benjamin Topf

One frame, two concepts: the 3T Exploro Race EKAR 1x13 is based on the Exploro RaceMax frame, which can be built up either as an ultimate adventure bike or a full-on gravel racing machine.

Highs
  • Maximum efficiency

  • Very predictable handling

  • Frameset offers excellent vibration damping

  • Coherent overall package

Lows
  • Vague downshifts

  • The looks of the front cable routing are questionable

  • Gear range not wide enough for steep climbs
