Argon 18Dark Matter Force AXS XPLR E1 Gravel Bike 2025
The Argon 18 Dark Matter Force AXS XPLR E1 Gravel Bike 2025 is not just a gravel bike. It is built to take on demanding terrain, both physically and mentally. Designed for riders who press on when the trail gets tough, it performs best in conditions others avoid. When the road ends and the challenge begins, the Dark Matter is ready.
Tyre clearance (57 mm)
The generous tyre clearance allows for larger tyres that offer better traction, comfort and versatility. Ideal for tackling technical trails or spending long days on unpredictable surfaces.
Integrated downtube storage
Discreet downtube storage provides space for essentials such as tools, snacks or a spare tube, keeping the bike clean and clutter-free.
Adventure-ready geometry
Designed for control and stability across varied terrain. The relaxed geometry promotes comfort on long rides over rough ground. Compatible with a front suspension fork for added comfort and control.
1x drivetrain
The 1x setup provides smooth, efficient shifting with fewer moving parts. This reduces maintenance and increases reliability on rough terrain. A hidden front derailleur mount is included for those who prefer a 2x drivetrain.
Dropper post compatibility
Compatible with a dropper post to enhance control on technical descents, helping to lower the centre of gravity for improved handling on steep, rocky trails.
Mounting points for bottles, racks and mudguards
Versatile mounting options make it easy to carry extra water, gear or weather protection. Suitable for bikepacking or extended day rides.
Dynamo routing in the fork
Integrated fork routing for a dynamo system keeps lights and devices powered without compromising the bike’s clean appearance.
Internal cable routing
Cables are routed internally for a tidy finish and easy integration with handlebar bags or accessories.
