any bike shops carry Argon18 in Singapore?

Also, which Argon18 model would you recommend as a good middle range bike?

TEF Bikers Junction along upper thomson road, beside the shell station do have argon18 bikes

depends on which type of bikes u want.. road/ tri

personally i feel that krypton is a good road bike.

there are 3 models for the tri bikes.. mercury..e112 and e114..

I think Chapter2 Cycles in Ang Mo Kio has Argon 18. A friend of mine bought a mercury there.

I used to own one. Great bike. Used with a dropbar and clip-on aerobar will make a great bike for a hilly course.
I bought mine, frame only for $1800 in late 06.

Thanks I was thinking of either a Krypton or a Radon. Doesn't hurt that they all look so nice.

www.argon18bike.com

You can get the details from their website. Krypton has a rear cut off... not deep but still not too bad. quite a few tri friends I know used that bike for tri-ing too. Me used to too.

[lcpsimongoh007_tri]

th mercury i think is around 1.4-1.5kg. not light for its class but stiff enough to prevent any lateral flexing. the rear cutput is deeper than krypton.

i am selling my Kyrton frame only for 1450? interested? hahahahaha
