Mostly updated Geo,increased tyre clearance to 51c and more aero and some new sick colours too, would definitely go for this over the new cervelo aspéro 5

I saw the first bike listed at 15,000 CAD thinking that was flagship. It’s only SRAM Force.
I am not the target audience for this bike 😭💸
Yeah absolutely over the Áspero5, but I think 3T missed the opportunity to make it ready for MTB tires. 51c is right at the edge to it. It’s WAM. So width as measured and I guess that doesn’t leave any room for bigger than that. That means if you have a really wide rim with over 30mm inner width you could end up with even with a 50c gravel with at least 52 or more. That means you are very limited in regards to your tire choices. You can use the current models maybe up to 50c, but with not too wide rims and for example a 2.1 MTB tire is completely out of the equation. For me this is a huge missed opportunity for real versatility and so for me a no buy. Even my old Addict gravel with 45c can clear a 50c tire. So unfortunately no crazy improvement over already existing models in my opinion.
