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. Those components must be installed using a calibrated torque wrench to make sure every bolt is at the right torque setting to prevent damage.

GALLIUM PRO 210A: 3. Cables & housing installation

Rear brake cable housing

Remove the cable stopper (4) near the seat collar.

Font section: Mesure the necessary cable housing to ensure a proper rotation of the handlebar. Insert the cable trough the shifter, then insert the cable and the housing with a ferrule in the head tube.

Rear section: With a magnet, get the rear brake cable out of the frame, and pass it trough the rear cable stopper. Measure the rear housing correctly to avoid interference with the rider’s left leg. Fix the cable to the brake according to the brake manufacturer assembly guide.

GALLIUM PRO 210A: 3. Cable & housing installation

Front and rear derailleur: Pass the two cables inside the frame starting from the top tube until they come out under the bottom bracket.

Pass both cables into the cable guide (19). Make sure the 5mm screw is set to 1.5 Nm.

For a Di2 configuration, use the bottom bracket dedicated cover for electric shifting (18).

It’s better to install the cables before installing the bottom bracket and crank.

GALLIUM PRO 210A: 4. Electronic drive-train specification

The Di2 cable routing can be achieved easily using this simple trick: use a brake cable and a metal cable end to fix the Di2 cable. For more information on Shimano Di2 electronic system installation, go to: http://si.shimano.com.

Use the proper grommet on the headtube to fix the cable correctly (depending if you use a mechanical or electronic drive-train).

Use the proper grommet / cable stopper for the rear derailleur (depending if you use mechanical or electronic drive-train).

In a Di2 configuration, remove the cable stopper (3) and use the Di2 grommet (6) instead, but leave the 2 scews to avoid empty holes on the frame.

In a mechanical configuration, use the provided cable guide pipe (12) for the front derailleur. For an electronic drive-train configuration, remove the cable guide pipe and use the proper grommet (23) to fix the cable correctly.

GALLIUM PRO 210A: 5. Saddle adjustment

5.1 Install the saddle on the rocker (8.4.1) and tighten the rail clamp (8.4.2) using the screw (8.1).

5.2 Adjust the angle of the saddle using a 8mm open wrench on the 8.3 bolt. Then tighten the assembly with the rear bolt (8.1) to 6Nm.

5.3 The rail clamp (8.4.2) can be flipped to change the saddle offset.

GALLIUM PRO 210A: 6. Derailleur hanger adjustment

The front derailleur hanger can be adjusted according to the front derailleur angle to get an equal curve between the derailleur and the big chain ring. Once at the right angle, use blue 242 Loctite and screw in at 6Nm.
