3T R Discus Plus C30W Lighter Rear Wheel
Perfect for when the pavement comes to an end, this rear wheel gives you greater stability and control on mixed terrains.
It features an incredibly stiff carbon clincher rim construction, which means that you'll benefit from its fantastic strength without worrying about adding any unnecessary weight to your road or gravel bike. 3T has also equipped this model with a wider rim profile that's perfect for use with wider tyres. As a result, you'll be able to enjoy its improved cornering and grip, while its tubeless tyre compatibility allows you to stay comfortable and in control.
We've never gone on an all-road/gravel ride where in the end people said: "That was fun, but it would have been better with smaller tyres". That simply doesn't happen, when the going gets tough, wider is better. Which is why 3T's Exploro frame fits up to 2.1" tyres and why we are big supporters of 650b wheels, since they allow you to mount wider tyres without the overall diameter of the wheel becoming unwieldy.
The Discus Plus is the world's first wheel range specifically designed for wider tyres on all-road/gravel bikes, whether you use a RoadPlus (road profile, 44-50mm wide) or GravelPlus (small mountain bike tyre, 50-54mm (2.1") wide).
The advantages of the 3T R Discus Plus C30W Lighter Rear Wheel are obvious: more grip, more comfort, almost un-flattable (is that a word?) so you are practically unstoppable.

3T Wheels
3T is a brand synonymous with lightweight road cycling components, such as stems, bars and seatposts. Founded in 1961, 3T (Tecnologia del Tubo Torino - or Turin Tube Technology) was initially named 3TTT, and is situated near Milano in a city called Bergamo, in Northern Italy. As the name suggests, initially their products were made with metal - steel to be precise - as the founder Mario Dedioniggi specialised in working with this material. By 1970, steel was replaced by the increasingly popular alloy, in order to save weight without sacrificing performance. 5 years later the famous Superleggera handlebar was born, weighing just 250g, which at the time was believed to be the lightest handlebar on the market. It was constructed from 7075 aluminium alloy, which was usually reserved for aerospace industries.
Over the years 3T has provided components for victorious Tour de France, Olympic, World Championships and successful World Hour Record attempts. In 1984 Moser pushed past the 50km barrier in his hour attempt using a 3T bar, eventually setting a new record of 51.151km. In recent years Ryder Hesjedal won the 2013 Giro d'Italia on a 3T equipped bike. In the MTB world, Nicolas Vouilloz won his 3rd Downhill World Championships whilst riding with a 3T bar. Nowadays 3T produce components in carbon fibre, as well as having cheaper lightweight alloy ranges for those on a budget. For more information on 3T's products, please visit their website, or view their history page. Alternatively you can find more information on the Italian company on their Wikipedia entry.
