To maintain the validity of the warranty, the bicycle must be fully assembled by an
authorized Argon 18 dealer. High-end components, particularly carbon parts, require
extra care during assembly.
These components must be installed using a torque wrench to ensure each bolt is at
the specified torque setting to prevent damage.

to their torque specifications and fastener conditions when necessary.

IMPORTANT:
No more than 30mm of spacers can be placed between the stem and the top
cap of the 3D system. The use of more than 5mm of spacers on top of the stem
could affect the eciency of the compressor. These practices will automatically
void any warranty claim against the manufacturer.
IMPORTANT:
The MAHLE X35+ system is shipped to retailers in Demo mode. When the bike
is sold, it must be taken out of Demo mode. Please see related documentation
on our B2B portal. Demo mode will allow for a maximum of 50km of riding, after
which the motor will stop working.
