2022 ARGON 18 SUBITO ROAD RIVAL 22 BIKE

The Argon 18 Subito E-Road packs all the benefits of an Argon 18 performance road bike but adds an extra boost. The Subito is a road bike first and an eBike second, providing the light and agile feel with incredible handling that you would expect out of a standard Argon 18 road bike. While this bike looks exactly like a typical road bike at first glance, it is ready to give you an extra boost when needed. It is perfect for keeping up with riding partners, pushing through those extra miles, or simply having a bit of fun on the road. A hub motor installed in the rear wheel will make sure riders have the exact amount of power they need to keep moving without losing the riding experience.

The frame of the Subito E-Road is made with a lightweight carbon fiber layup. Cable routing and the battery are all hidden away in the frame to maintain a sleek look. Still, these items are easy to access for any needed maintenance. Like all Argon 18 bikes, the geometry is adjusted along each frame size with the Argon Fit System, assuring the perfect riding position regardless of the rider’s body type. A 3D+ system is new to the Subito which offers three headtube heights for each size to customize fit without sacrificing rigidity. This system offers five and 11 percent more stiffness vs. standard spacers when the handlebar is set at 15mm and 30mm respectively. Despite all the extra components that make this an eBike, the full bike comes in below the 12kg mark. This makes it one of the lightest in its class to match the performance, which is also some of the best in the world.

The Subito E-Road incorporates Argon 18’s Topological Compliance System. This creates the perfect balance between comfort and performance for road riding. It is typically featured in Argon 18 endurance road bikes, so it was a perfect addition to this eBike. A bit of extra vertical compliance adds to the comfort of the ride and dampens road vibration. It manages all of this while maintaining the low weight, stiffness, and aerodynamics that are needed in a race-ready road bike. This version of the Subito E-Road is equipped with a Frame Rival 22 groupset for affordable and efficient 11-speed mechanical shifting. The Argon 18 Subito E-Road Rival 22 is the perfect way to optimize road fun and performance on the road while keeping that natural feel.
