Argonaut Cycles: Modus Operandi

So everyone keeps asking me “what’s up with Argonaut?” and finally, I’ve got a more concrete answer. A while back, I took notice of Ben’s shift into carbon fiber production. He had a thing going called “Tech Tuesdays“, which I really enjoyed. After ironing out a legitimate production process, the new Argonaut Cycles was born.

Check out this video of Ben explaining his new bike offering and check out some studio shots of an Argonaut below.

    Did they borrow that seatpost from Ritte? ;)

      No but they got the hardware from ENVE. Ritte was by no means the first to do that. The seat tube is shaped, so a clamp like that ensures the post is always centered.

    i wonder how they got a hold of that water bottle in the video at 2:10..its from a small shop in savannah ga I used to work at

    Amazing bike and i love that they do the entire manufacturing process themselves, too bad the frame alone is about my entire budget.
