Argon 18
Technology: the Optimal Balance
A bicycle must be light, rigid and comfortable.
No more, no less.
If there is any ‘’secret’’ at all to Argon 18’s
success, it lies with our exclusive designs, whereby we first
define which ride characteristics we want to build into each
frameset model and then deliberately engineer those properties
into the finished product. Every Argon model exhibits a very
specific road feel, distinct from the other models in the
line.
There are many kinds of riders and just as many riding styles.
Argon 18's diversified design concepts as well as the wide
range of models means cyclists of every stripe can find an
Argon that meets their needs.
Only leading, progressive companies can make such a claim and
deliver on the promise, but that’s just what Argon 18 is: a
leader in the world of cycling. |
| Argon 18 Gallium Pro |
|
A
frameset with impressive stiffness: power yourself off the
front!
In its ceaseless quest for performance, Argon 18 is
happy to take a pause and introduce the 2012 Gallium Pro,
its flagship road bike and official ride of Team SpiderTech
powered by C-10. This collaboration with Steve
Bauer’s squad offers us an excellent testing facility and
recently the Gallium Pro was ridden to two Canadian
Championships by SpiderTech riders Svein Tuft (Elite/Pro)
and Hugo Houle (U-23).
The Gallium Pro is the most powerful embodiment of
Optimal Balance we’ve come up with so far. It’s
lighter, stiffer and more comfortable. Once again,
we’ve set the bar higher, so riders everywhere can do the
same with their performance.
The
GalliumPro is equally compatible with Di2 or mechanical
components. Regardless of the group you choose, all cables
and wiring are internally routed.
The GaliumPro comes equipped with the 3D Headtube system,
an Argon 18 exclusive. Easy to install and adjust, 3D
replaces conventional spacers with a structural mechanism
that allows for handlebar height adjustment without
compromising front-end stiffness.

Offering
a stiffer front end and better control
Going
faster in an elegant, fluid style is one of cycling’s
greatest pleasures and one that riders constantly seek to
achieve. Argon 18, official bike supplier to Team
SpiderTech, understands that feeling. Fabricated
in the same mold used for the Gallium Pro, the Gallium shares
a number of features found on the Pro.
A
model example of Optimal Balance, the Gallium was conceived to
bring together the most desirable qualities in a bike, so you
can enjoy its perfect blend of comfort, stiffness and light
weight.

More responsive and versatile than ever thanks to the 3D
Headtube
Argon 18, official supplier to Team SpiderTech, presents
the popular Krypton for 2012, a proven stellar performer in
any setting.
Think of the world’s most beautiful and challenging
roads, the places of cycling legend; that’s where the
Krypton belongs. This bike has it all: low weight,
comfort, efficiency, it’s all there, optimally balanced.
All that’s missing is you.
The Krypton comes equipped with the 3D Headtube system, an
Argon 18 exclusive. Easy to install and adjust, 3D replaces
conventional spacers with a structural mechanism that allows
for handlebar height adjustment without compromising front-end
stiffness.
Since the 3D Headtube system offers three effective head
tube lengths, a rider can set the right position initially,
but can later revise this position as fitness, taste or riding
style evolve over time.

18 Radon |
 |
A true classic with time-tested
qualities: never underestimate a Radon
With a geometry that closely mirrors the Gallium
Pro’s, this triple-butted aluminum and carbon combination
offers outstanding value. The Radon is an excellent choice
for cyclists looking to get serious about riding. As
a result of data obtained in the Gallium’s development
process, the Radon frameset was completely redesigned in
order to better resist torsional forces while giving a more
comfortable ride.
