3T recently updated the Primo gravelbike with the introduction of the Primo² WPNT, the bike designed for both road and offroad use.

The update features a semi-integrated cable system and a slightly higher stack to give a more relaxed position on the bike. Other geometry figures remained the same as the previous Primo. The same applies to the tire clearance, the new frame still fits 700c tires up to 45 mm WAM (Width-As-Measured) and 355 mm RAM (Radius-As-Measured), and performs best with tires no smaller than 35 mm.

3T launched an in-house paint facility and with the WPNT custom program, they can finally deliver the full process of bike production, from engineering to colour design. The Primo² comes in four different colour, Gesso white, Fumo grey, Salvia green and Orchidea purple.

Aerodynamics has been an important criterium for the new Primo². They created a frame that is optimized for both speeding at 50 km/h and a more realistic 32 km/h. For high speed gravelling you better turn to the 3T Racemax model which has a more gravel specific geometry.

The Primo² frame features a truncated Sqaero profile on the 50×75 down tube, providing both stiffness and aerodynamic advantages as the boxy tube guides the airflow around a wider front tire. This Sqaero profile is has also been applied to head tube, fork, seatpost and seat stays. In short, the Primo² has a road-inspired geometry while still offering wide tire and wheel options. Ride fast on 700c wheels, then switch to 650b and bigger tires when adventure calls.

The new 3T Primo² comes in 4 different colours and 2 different groupsets (GRX 1×12 or AXS 1×13). There are different wheelset options to choose from.
