As fast and bright as lightning, but capable of adventure and long distances too. Does the Argon 18 Krypton offer the best of both worlds?

Highs
  • Versatile thanks to the consistent all-road concept

  • Relaxed riding position for long days in the saddle

  • Roomy and well-integrated storage compartment in the down tube

  • Beautiful frame details with a bonus introduction to chemistry
