Argon 18 Radon
The Radon is an efficient bike in any situation. Combining aluminum and carbon, this frameset is race-ready. Our frame distortion tests have shown that the rear triangle ensures complete power transfer, but not at the price of comfort.

Benefits |
Thermo Tech 2060 Series triple-butted aluminum frame with 4005 HT Nano-Tech carbon fiber seatstays and chainstays
Termo-Tech 2060T3 is triple butted, it assures very good rigidity and lightness. |
Light, efficient, vibration-absorbing for comfort. |
HDS design
By varying tube size and shape, as well as composite layup, Argon coax maximum lateral rigidity and responsiveness from the lower part of the frame while building the top half of the frame so as to provide maximum vibration dissipation. |
Optimally balanced rigidity, light weight and comfort. Increased stiffness of frame sections stressed by power transfer. |
AFS design
In designing a cycle frame, the notion of front horizontal distance is fundamental. In each of the five framesizes offered by Argon, this distance is optimized in order to maximize comfort and handling. |
Easier positioning, ensures proper weight distribution for stability, optimizes handling. |
PPT design
Argon designers have created a rear triangle that progressively transfers power to the rear wheel while also offering increased vertical compliance for greater vibration absorption. |
Lively, dynamic feel; efficient in acceleration and climbing out of saddle without sacrificing vertical compliance for superior comfort. |
| Smooth-finished welding fillets on main triangle |
Refined aesthetics; reduces stress risers in welded joints. |
| Kevlar – reinforced right chainstay |
Increased drive-side chainstay stiffness; protects against chainslap impacts. |
| CNC carbon dropouts with replaceable derailleur hanger |
Repairable in case of accident. |
| Radon-specific carbon fork |
Fork design is coherent with characteristics designed into Radon frame. |
