Fork

This bike has the Fox Factory Float 34 fork installed. The fork’s travel is 140mm. Bike forks absorb the shocks and give you a smooth and pleasant ride. To sum up, when buying a bicycle, make sure you get a fork that is capable of delivering decent travel.

Wheels size

When leaving the production line, the Argos – Shimano XT model has 29″ carbon wheels. Having 29″ wheels means that you need less fork travel, leading to a reduction of the pedal bob effect. However, the 29″ wheels will add a little more weight to the bike itself.

Brakes

We ride faster and faster, so a good braking system is essential on a bike nowadays. The Argos – Shimano XT comes with Hydraulic Disc brakes. Hydraulic disc brakes provide amazing stopping power, no matter what the terrain. To sum up, your safety is in good hands.

Sizes

This bike has one size only, so it might not fit you. In conclusion, double-check its size to make sure it’s a good fit for you.

Dropper post

Alchemy Argos – Shimano XT comes with a dropper post. If used correctly, a dropper post gives you more faith, maneuverability, and greater control over your bike.
