Argon 18 Gallium Pro disc review

Oct 2018 · Warren Rossiter

Understated design in a brilliant race machine, just a bit pricey for the equipment level. Buy if you want a bike that’s full of clever tech, rides brilliantly and doesn’t need to shout about it

Highs
  • Handling chops to die for, subtle and smooth ride

Lows
  • Ultegra Di2 is great but at this price I’d expect Dura-Ace

Argon 18 Gallium Pro Disc

May 2017 · William Tracy

The Galium is stiff but disc brakes increase tire clearance to 30mm because even the thoroughbred wants to explore sometimes.
