The official supplier to Team SpiderTech, presents the popular Krypton for 2012, a proven stellar performer in any setting.Think of the world’s most beautiful and challenging roads, the places of cycling legend; that’s where the Krypton belongs. This bike has it all: low weight, comfort, efficiency, it’s all there, optimally balanced. All that’s missing is you.
The Krypton was conceived as an integrated unit, built in a proprietary mold. It includes the following elements:
A monocoque carbon frame, optimized according to HDS ( Horizontal Dual System ) principles. in order to make the most of monocoque construction. Conceptually, a frame can be divided into two areas that have distinct but complementary functions:
Power Zone: We’ve maximized stiffness in the frame with massive chainstays as well as an oversized bottom bracket shell.
Comfort Zone: The frame’s upper areas feature smaller, thinner tubes that absorb and dissipate vibration from the road. A distinguishing feature of the Krypton is its shallow but wide top tube, a shape that dissipates vibration but maintains more than enough lateral stiffness for sprinting and difficult climbs.
Whether in training or during a race, HDS construction lessens fatigue thanks to the enhanced comfort while the lateral rigidity maintains maximum efficiency, losing none of the athlete’s power in propelling the bike forward.
Argon 18’s AFS geometrymeans that every frame size has been given balanced, logical dimensions, making each frame ergonomically sound while ensuring that the bike has the desired characteristics on the road: accurate steering, agility, quick response and predictable handling.
An ideal position for riders of all sizes A responsive, nimble bike regardless of frame size

The Kr 36 carbon fork also molded as a single piece, with excellent vibration dissipation, contributing to the Krypton’s outstanding comfort.
The Krypton comes equipped with the 3D Headtube system, easy to install and adjust, 3D replaces conventional spacers with a structural mechanism that allows for handlebar height adjustment without compromising front-end stiffness. Enhanced positioning versatility and increased lateral rigidity ..
