RR Pro EN 3.2
The illustration shows the 3T Exploro Gravelbike version. The bike you purchased may look somewhat different. This manual describes
bicycles in the following categories: Road Racing bike, Triathlon/Time trial bike, Cyclocross bike, Single-speed bike/Fixie. This operating
manual only applies to the bicycle with which it was supplied.
Please carefully read all warnings and notes in this operating manual be-
fore using the bicycle. We recommend keeping the manual close to your
bicycle, so that it is always at hand.
Please ensure you read the chapters “Before the first ride” and “Be-
fore each ride” before using the bicycle for the first time!
If you lend your bicycle to a third party, please give them this operating
manual with the bicycle.
This operating manual contains different types of pointers – one providing
important information about your new bicycle and how to use it, a second
referring to possible damage to property and the environment, and a third
type warning against potential falls and serious damage, including physi-
cal injury. The fourth type of pointer asks you to comply with the correct
torque in order to prevent components from coming loose or breaking.
If you see this symbol, there is always a risk that the danger described
can occur!
The text which the warning covers always has a grey background.
Check that all quick releases are safe and secure every time you ride after
your bicycle was unused, even for a short period of time! Regularly check
that all bolts and components are secure.
Note that components made of composite materials, i.e. carbon fibre, often
require a lower tightening torque (see “Bolted connections” section, page
26). Common parts made of carbon fibre include the handlebars, stems,
seat posts and saddle rails, frames, forks, and cranks. Ask your specialist
retailer to instruct you on how to properly use and maintain these materials.
Never ride with your hands off the handlebars.

Information: This symbol provides information about how
to use the product or highlights specific parts of the operat-
ing manual that are particularly important.
Warning: This symbol is aimed at warning you against im-
proper use that could result in damage to property or the
environment.
Danger: This symbol indicates possible dangers to your
health and life that could arise if specific actions are not

Important bolted connection! Please adhere to the exact
recommended torque when tightening this connection.
The correct mounting torque is either displayed on the
component or listed in the table of torques in the “Bolt-
ed connections” section (page 26). A torque wrench has to be used
to achieve the precise prescribed torque. If you don’t own a torque
wrench then you should always leave this work up to a specialist
retailer! Parts which do not have the correct torque could fall off or
break! This can result in serious accidents!
The warnings break down as follows:
