When the midlife crisis hit, I figured: why not lean into it with some carbon therapy?
Living near the Alps means I’m dealing with steep climbs and rough, rocky terrain. After diving into the world of big tires and capable builds, I finally landed on this setup:
• Frame: 3T Extrema
• Groupset: SRAM Red + XX Eagle Mullet setup
• Wheels: DT Swiss 50mm deep
• Tires: Continental RaceKing 2.2
So far, it climbs like a goat and floats over chunky stuff like a dream. Loving it.
Would love to hear thoughts or see what other alpine-friendly gravel rigs you’re riding!
