Argon 18 Gallium carbon road bike from the World Tour Team Astana*. This frame has been used through the 2017 season. The Gallium is the former flagship road frame from Argon18. Destined for glory and designed for the pro peloton, the Gallium Pro offers premium-level performance with a timeless look and a classic road race geometry.
According to Argon18, when the Gallium was presented in 2005, it introduced a new way of thinking about pro-level carbon frames. Argon18 was convinced that one frame could be light enough for World Tour mountain stages, stiff enough for bunch sprints, and comfortable enough for epic group rides. Therefore the Gallium is a purebred racing bike for those who accept no compromises and want a do-it-all bike!
This particular frame has been ridden by Astana's legendary directeur sportif Alexander Vinokourov.
The frame has been used but the overall condition of the frame is good. The frame has scratches at the seat tube, down tube, chainstay, and rear stay. Please see the pictures!
