2017 Argon 18 Xenon 650 Bike

The Xenon 650 is an elite racing bike first and a kids’ bike second. It is made for the young cyclist who wants the very best out of a racing bike. It is geared for the cyclist for whom this is more than just a hobby, but a way of life. Argon 18 has come up with a bike for these riders. It is called the Xenon 650.

It’s true that when you make a bike for a younger rider you have to make adjustments. Argon 18 knows this and has well thought out how to best accommodate the young rider. One way Argon 18 makes adjustments is by using the AFS system to ensure the perfect fit.

AFS stands for Argon Fit System, and Argon 18 extends it to kids. “The Argon Fit System is designed to provide riders of all physical dimensions with consistent performance and optimal ergonomics. No matter what your morphology or your racing style, your positioning will be efficient and comfortable, ensuring the ultimate in handling.” To keep with the principle of AFS the dimensions of the bike have been tweaked and altered to provide the perfect fit to young riders.

The bike is composed of Double-Butted Aluminum. It is a material that is great to use on a younger rider’s bike because it is really lightweight and easy to work with. It also ensures an efficient power transfer. The fork is made of carbon, once again a lightweight material and it makes for a lighter bike. Also, Argon 18 uses the concept of Optimal Balance, defined as synergy between light weight, comfort and rigidity. It is what allows the riders to improve from ride to ride.

From their first training session to race day, this bike will take them to the next level.
