Argon 18 – The Science of Speed
Argon 18 was born in 1989 in Montreal, Canada, from the vision of former professional cyclist Gervais Rioux. Driven by the pursuit of precision, performance, and innovation, Rioux set out to create bikes that combined the art of cycling with the science of aerodynamics and engineering. The brand name, Argon 18, pays tribute to Rioux’s fascination with science: Argon is the 18th element on the periodic table, a noble gas known for its stability and strength—qualities that mirror the brand’s commitment to building stable, powerful, and high-performing bikes.
From its origins as a rider-founded company, Argon 18 quickly earned global recognition. The brand’s relentless focus on research and development has produced results at the highest levels of sport, from victories in WorldTour road races and triathlons to Olympic podiums. Each bike embodies a balance of speed, handling, and comfort, backed by technology that helps athletes push beyond their limits.
