Our Quest for the Perfect Ride

We designed the Krypton Pro to be a no-compromises bike that’s stable at speed, responsive under big watts, and smooth after a full day in the saddle - all on one of the lightest frames in the category. Road.cc. agreed when they awarded it 2019 Frameset of the year: "it certainly delivers on performance thanks to a low weight and plenty of stiffness, but factor in its immense comfort and slightly relaxed geometry and you'll find this is probably one of the fastest endurance machines on the market."

Ideal for

This is the Gran Fondo champion and king of the classics - especially when the roads get rough.

Topological Compliance System

To achieve the optimal balance of comfort and performance for our endurance line, we needed geometry uniquely aligned with the demands of long-distance riding and racing. In conjunction with the best geometry, we also needed to optimise frame topology and carbon layup.

Do you want great handling? Do you want the ability to take any corner or descent with confidence? Do you want to build the dream bikepacking machine? Look no further, the Krypton pro will deliver. No matter what type of riding I do on it the bike exceeds. I love this bike, so will you.

Exceptional comfort and climbing

By Monty Richardson from CA, Ontario

I have several bikes, but, this is the best combination of comfort, speed amd climbing I have ever ridden. I built it with Sram Rival etap as I wanted the 46/30, 10/ 36 for climbimg as I live in a hilly area. I wish Argon would offer the complete bike with that drive train; yes it is a little heavier than Force,but gives you more low range and is a bit cheaper. I am 5'6 (168cm); Argon recommends an xs for my height, bit I chose the s and it fits perfectly so be sure of your size choice
