Argon 18 are a highly respected brand from Canada.

Often thought as a poor mans’ Cervelo (the ‘other’ Canadian brand) that statement is very far from the truth as they are the preferred choice of bike for the Astana Pro Peleton Race Team. Their TT bikes, in particular, are extremely popular and are regarded as one of the best on the circuit.

This model, the Gallium Pro, is one of their most prestigious models and similar to the type of bike used by the Pro Team. It is the desired bike of Fabio Aru who used this bike in the mountain stages of the Grand Tours. Resplendent in the team colours the bike has been custom built with a very desirable spec.

Using parts from 3T and Prologo no corners have been cut. Supplied with a full Shimano Ultegra groupset the bike has been complimented with a fabulous pair of Reynolds Assault carbon wheels fitted with Michelin Lithion tyres.

We have given this bike a full custom build and used a combination of new and lightly used parts to complete the overall package. We have stated on the listing which parts are brand new but on the whole most of the used parts have not seen much life.

The build has been completed by our in-house Cytech 3 mechanic and as such features brand new cables, inners and outers throughout. It has a super colour scheme that gives it huge kerb appeal and would make any new owner very happy. Because it’s custom built, it makes the bike that much more unusual and thus a much better proposition to buy.

The spec is as follows;

‘Custom Build’

Custom Built carbon frame
Carbon forks
Shimano Ultegra Double Chainset ( 50 / 34 )
Shimano Ultegra 22 speed STI gearing
Shimano Ultegra front mech
Shimano Ultegra rear mech
Shimano Ultegra dual pivot brakes
Reynolds Assault SLG carbon Factory wheels
3T Arx Team stem / 3T Superego Pro handlebars

Argon 18 custom ASP carbon seatpost
** Brand new / Prologo Kappa RS saddle
** Brand new / Michelin Lithion 23` race tyres
** Brand new / Tenn Outdoors bar tape

Viewing is recommended to appreciate the bike. Treat yourself to an excellent bike that offers super value by comparison to a new model.

This bike would be an excellent investment for someone looking for a great bike without paying a huge amount of money.

This is one of BG Bikes best ‘custom builds’ to date. We have spec’d this bike how a cyclist would choose to ride it. We are incredibly proud of the outcome and very pleased to offer such a unique and wonderful product. If you are looking for something that extra special then this bike is for you.

RRP – £5900  (appx price – **see notes below)

BG Bikes INTERNET price – £2,995

 

**N.B. The retail price for this bike when new with a Shimano Dura Ace groupset and Fulcrum Racing Speed wheels was £6,500. The spec of our custom build offers lower spec’d Ultegra but wheels that are equally good; if not better. The remaining spec is also similar in terms of the bars, stem and seat post. The main difference is that our bike is in the Team Astana race colours, for which there is a premium to pay.
