For the warranty to be valid, the bicycle must be fully assembled by an authorized Argon 18 dealer. High end components,

particularly carbon parts, need extra care when assembled. These components must be installed using a calibrated torque

wrench to make sure every bolt is at the right torque setting to prevent damage.
