DARK MATTER 282A: Table of Contents

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 torque wrench to

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

DARK MATTER 282A: 5. Troubleshooting / Tip / Specication

Brakes

Use only at mount hydraulic disc brakes. The frame and fork are

compatible with either 140mm or 160mm disc rotors. Adapters might be

required, consult brake manufacturer.

• Rear mount thickness: 25mm

Tire Clearance

The biggest tires that can be installed must be no wider than 45mm for

the rear and front wheel. If fenders are installed, the tires must be no wider

than 40mm

Seat Post

27.2mm

Seat Post Clamp

31.8mm

Bottom Bracket

BB86 (Press-t)

Headset

FSA No 30 + 3D Press-t (Bearing 1 1/8”, 36°x45° top and 1 1/2” ,

36°x45° bottom + FSA TH-881-1 Compressor included)

No more than 30mm of spacer can be placed between the stem and

the top cap of the 3D system. And the use of more than 5mm spacer

on top of the stem could void the eciency of the compressor. These

practices will automatically cancel any warranty claim against the

manufacturer.

Headset cap:

When uninstalling the headset cap, you

need to rst loosen the headset cap,

remove the HS cap screw and remove

the fork from the frame. Then you need

to pinch the rear section the headset

cap and lift the rear section upward.

This will release the headset cap from

the frame.

collar with the seat post.

the inside of the frame

(seat tube). Tighten the bolt

at 4 Nm.

• Screw both bolts in order to adjust the angle of the saddle and clamp the rail.

• Tighten the bolt at 9.5 Nm.
