Strengths: Stiff but forgiving, light weight and one that will stand out from all the others.Weaknesses: noneBottom Line: I have ridden/ owned many bikes but this one stands out above the rest. I've never had a bike that was the best at everything it does until now. They designed the frame to be extremely stiff in the chainstay/ BB area, bottom tube and head tube. The seat stay, seat tube and top tube are more forgiving which really makes this bike my favorite of all time. It stays stiff and staight over bumps but doesn't pound you like others I've used. Cornering seems precise, no flex on the bb area and with my weight (225lbs) that is a great thing. Also the front is very stiff (1 1/4 headset) and there is no noticable flex at all. Just a smooth, quick and light weight rocket on wheels

Strengths: This is a good looking well built bike-very well put together. Three hour rides are a pleasure-you dont get beat up-but still have a firm ride--step on the peddles and you go--very responsive to any request you make---speed, climbing decsnts and stopping--Yes i wood buy it again--infact I did--they say its good to have a second bike for a spare / back up. So I ordered a new 2011 Galliup pro to go with the 2010.Weaknesses: After 2500+ miles havent found the weakness yet--just not enought time to be on the bike.Bottom Line: I started riding again after a 20 lay off-- I needed a new bike, after reading and going to many bike shops I chose a Argon 18 Gallium Pro--it looks great, stands out from the other brands-that make me try harder- I ride about 4 times a week-usually 30 to 40 miles per ride-the bike is quick and responsive very comfortable for 2-3 hr rides feels good on both climbing and fast decesnt 35-40 mph- its a firm frindley bike to ride.
Favorite Ride: orange county bike paths--so calif.
Price Paid:
$6000.00
Purchased At: cycle pro -lake fore
Bike Setup: Both bikes are Campy Super record. One hat Mavic wheels the other has Swiss Dr wheels--both have speedplay peddles and the same saddle.
