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.

bottom section of the 3D bearing holder (6) and insert

the plastic sleeve (7).

STEP

Position the headset inside the head tube. Place

the top 3D assembly with the headset bearing inside

(this will prevent the sleeve from getting damaged).

Add the compression ring on top of the bearing, then

add the press t 3D system tool and softly press down

the assembly until it bottoms out using a Bearing Cup

Press (Park Tool HHP-2). Then, insert the bottom

bearing (5), compression ring (4) micro spacers (3) and
