Argonaut: Best in Show
The Argonaut Cycles gravel racer was awarded Best in Show at the end of the 2014 North American Handmade Bicycle Show in Charlotte, NC. It was the first bike we noticed when we walked into the convention center where the exhibit was held – a long time before any awards were handed out.
Simple does it. And simple can be beautiful.
