Ahh Trigon

That is a blank Trigon RQC29. Building the CX version of that bike as I type this.

I have an older Trigon CX with Louis Garneau stickers on it. Aluminum main triangle, carbon stays. Trigon looks like they are threatening to enter the U.S. market. The warranty for the U.S. looks very weak and price generally high for an unknown brand. The build quality seems great. I don't see resellers taking the product.

Yeah, they've been strictly OEM up until this point and they don't really know how to market in the US. Quality is great.. Trigon/Conviva has maybe the most experience laying up carbon in the entire industry, not just Asia. They've been at it for 25+ years. People are just hearing about them now because they're going for other markets under their own banner. Not going to work with the current marketing crew there, or here, it's maybe one dude Stateside. I'd be happy if they stayed OEM.

Well same as Europe they are trying something, but it is better for them to work for Pinarello, Most, PRO (Shimnao), Ritchey.. as they do.

MSRPn for RQC29 with Sram red is 4905 euro:eek:, so.....

For me Giant TCR Giant TCR Giant(actually about 6 all together) mostly with old Campy record, some sweet Sigma Hardox tubbies. A couple more cheaper versions including a TCX with Chorus and a couple cheaper TCR's with Sachs. that's Sachs not SRAM as in old 8 speed.
Still love it, working great

There are none in Australia, you might want to take a trip to Malaysia or Hong Kong for one though.
