Argonaut Custom RM3

Dean's Full-Custom Argonaut RM3

Hard to believe. But it actually looks better in real life!

"I could sum it up by saying it’s probably like owning your first Porsche having driven a top of the range Audi for years"

We couldn't wait to get Dean's phenomenal RM3 up in our gallery. Dean is a long-time Seven fan and rides industrial miles on one of our favourite ever Axiom XX custom-builds

And given that we have a big Axiom v's Supernaut piece that has just gone up, we were especially keen to get Dean's insights as to how the Argonaut compared to his Axiom, upon which he has ridden tens of thousands of kilometres.

"There is just less bike overall, which can feel a little unnerving were it not for the fact that I feel very comfortable and in control. Small climbs require less effort".

"It is surprisingly smooth and quiet for a full carbon bike. It’s very efficient. It is extremely planted at speed. It wants to be ridden quickly"

What our clients say

  • "A very thorough, professional and personal service. I was keen to analyse my bike position after breaking my hip. The custom footbeds and alterations to my position feel really good, just wish I’d come sooner! Many thanks"

    TD

    Endurance MTB rider

  • "Honestly these are great (custom orthotics). My feet feel totally balanced and stable and I‘m not searching for the pedal when I want to push it. They’ve made a massive difference.”"

    Tom Pidcock

    Olympic MTB Gold Medallist

  • "Rode my standard Box Hill loop this morning with the temp shims and more thought to position. Felt more connected and compact on the bike. Fastest ride of the year, picked up close to a km/per hour despite crappy wet pot holed roads, a ton of traffic and a couple of nights out Thu/Fri."

    Matt H

    Seven Evergreen SL

  • "I tried the shorter cranks today and I like them - it feels like it's less stress for the back and it seems easier to ride higher cadence. In the end I had a good Tour with no back problems. Thanks for your help!"

    Bauke Mollema

  • "Julian was very knowledgeable and explained the fitting process very well. He came highly recommended and i completely agree. Very happy with the service. Instantly felt better on the bike. The pain i had in my knee went away right away. "
