Subject: RE: Looking for reviews on Argon 18 e112 and e116 Those are two different handling and fitting bikes. The E116 is a lot quicker steering and the E112 is longer and slower handling. Not sure that's a big deal for TT/Tri's but they ride differently. I have a E99 (Electron Pro Track bike ) and a E116. The E99 is based on the E112 mold and is longer and different bottom bracket height than the E116 for sure. There is also a stack height difference between the E116 and E112. You'll want to ride them and see which one fits and feels best for you.
The brakes on the E116 can be finicky to set up but once dialed they are great. Turned out the shop I got mine from put the front return sprigs in backwards and that was causing some alignment and drag issues. The ride on the E116 is super nice and it climbs really well (I live in a hilly area ).
No experience with the Norcom. I did have a Fuji Track Pro, but that's apple and oranges different. |
