    Everything is perfect except for the hoods. They should run into the top of the bar exactly level or a little bit up. They are too far down.

    I have no idea what's going on here.

    Nice bike. Not that many of us around. "Argon owners", and a local one too...

    Enjoy!!!
  • Ooof, nice build that.

    That looks great, any more details on those wheels?

    bought new off here from ChrisH. he'd got them from RideArgyle; a fella who imports direct and builds himself. novatec superlight hubs, 3.2mm aero spokes. they really do weigh 1450g. added some Ti skewers and voila. nice aero feel and stiff, brake well (not tried them in the wet yet though!)

    Beautiful bike! Love the styling. +1 on those wheels, i have the superlight version from rideargyle fitted with Onza preda tyres and they are by far the best wheels ive used. Both for racing and getting me from coast to coast in a day!
    Much cheaper(and lighter) than many other carbon wheelsets around.
