Argon 18 E-114

Argon 18 is presently enjoying a strong tailwind and intends to keep the pace high. A striking example of this is Project Element 114 which has recently culminated in the new E-114 time-trial frameset, brainchild of Gervais Rioux and the Argon team. This machine stands out for its ONEness concept front end, a completely integrated aero and stemless fork/aerobar combination that allows for an unprecedented integration of rider and machine from both an aerodynamic and ergonomic standpoint. This unity of purpose and design extends to the frame, fork, headset, bullhorn and aero bars, brakes and levers as well as a reversible carbon seatpost (76/78°).

Truly the star of Argon 18's 2008 collection, the E-114 was developed over the past two years in the context of Project Element 114, as a result of which Argon 18 was awarded the Institut Design Montréal's first prize for best industrial design.
