Rider Feedback

An impressive blend of lateral stiffness and vertical compliance that put it on par with many of the best carbon bikes that I have ridden.
Capo Velo
On just the second day of riding R3, I hit my personal record of a straight 1.2km sprint where I have ridden more than 200 times.

A titanium bike for carbon lovers ... The bike snaps sharply forward under sudden acceleration.
BICYCLING MAGAZINE
126 km bike race yesterday in Victoriaville with my T-Lab, 2000 m elevation gain, steep hills, fast descents... Won the bronze medal and the bike felt awesome.

We love the bikes. The R3's are one of those bikes that feels better and better the faster you go! What is better than a T-Lab R3? Answer: Two T-Lab R3's!
