For the warranty to be valid, the bicycle must be fully assembled by an authorized Argon 18 dealer. High-end components,
particularly carbon parts, need extra care when assembled. These components must be installed using a torque wrench to
make sure every bolt is at the right torque setting to prevent damage.

Brakes
Use only at mount hydraulic disc brakes. The frame and fork are
compatible with either 140mm or 160mm disc rotors. Adapters might be
required, consult brake manufacturer.
• Rear mount thickness: 25mm
Tire Clearance
The biggest tires that can be installed must be no wider than 45mm for
the rear and front wheel. If fenders are installed, the tires must be no wider
than 40mm
Seat Post
27.2mm
Seat Post Clamp
31.8mm
Bottom Bracket
BB86 (Press-t)
Headset
FSA No 30 + 3D Press-t (Bearing 1 1/8”, 36°x45° top and 1 1/2” ,
36°x45° bottom + FSA TH-881-1 Compressor included)
No more than 30mm of spacer can be placed between the stem and
the top cap of the 3D system. And the use of more than 5mm spacer
on top of the stem could void the eciency of the compressor. These
practices will automatically cancel any warranty claim against the
manufacturer.
Headset cap:
When uninstalling the headset cap, you
need to rst loosen the headset cap,
remove the HS cap screw and remove
the fork from the frame. Then you need
to pinch the rear section the headset
cap and lift the rear section upward.
This will release the headset cap from
the frame.
