Road Bike Check - Argon18 Gallium Pro

A once over of my road bike.

Have been riding this for about four months. All the road films after Descent Disciples Vol. 6 have been shot on this bike.
Fun fact: This is the same frameset that Rafael rode on in Vol. 1

Nice! I have the same Astana Gallium Pro frameset. It tracks so well through corners.

Still awesome bike for me. I ride an old steel bike on Claris and Vision aluminium wheels, and one other basic $200 steel fixed gear, and I work as an engineer. I still dream bikes like yours. Old people on their Madone Di2 who rides once a week to a cafe might laugh at my bikes, but for me all that matters is that you actually ride and enjoy it.

Chrome bag slows you down, you say. Lololol! Thank God! Otherwise all we would see of you on a video is a blur. :-)

I love the bike ... I also ride a Gallium Pro .. I run Ultegra, Zipp 202, Rapha Carbon seat and Argon18 Aerobars .. w/o pedals it weighed in at 15.6lbs

You might be able to lug up all of the camera gear in a larger camelbak type of backpack/hydrater. It would probably be more aero on the DH's and you will also have plenty of water! Not sure if it would interfere with the chest mount GP setup...

Big up Safa. All that matters is that you ride. Buff said 👍🏻

[lukasraabe]

nice setup im currently planing my own little streetracer and i think i will adapt some things from you keep it up but stay safe <3

[reinholdachleitner]

Nice colour and cockpit setup, still no disc brakes?Less hassle.

[cliffcox]

Safa, you don't worry about clincher brakes wearing out rims, and final question, single post brake vs direct mount, which is better?

[kenblair]

Nice ride, makes sense, to put front brake lever on right side, as most braking is on the front wheel. I always found it awkward, to apply the front brake, front the side. I might just try this on one of my bikes . KB.

[bandwagon]

are the vittoria corsas tubeless? would be also nice to know, at which pressure you run them :)

[piotrgross]

Hi, How your bike behaves on flat terrain? Can you compare it with other bikes? I found the same frame for sale and Im still thinking. I need a bike good for climbing but fast enough on flats. Thanks, Peter.

[cliffcox]

SAFA B, final question, theoretical. What if they DIS-Allowed cycling on all trails, including hikers? Where will we ride? I can't stay off, the bike, I'll go insane.

[JDRVP]

Dang your brave to be running descents like you do with rim brakes on carbon wheels. Ever have one blow out on you?
