Argo Springer

[Rock Doctor]

Yes, that's a nice machine, he did a great job on it. I wonder if we could get him to come back and give us a review of how it's been working out?

That is too cool.
Looks like it would really smooth out the ride on an 8 wheeler.

think that might be martwells machine.

Hello everyone, here is the video where we see the Frontier Sprigner swimming in the water. Look in the vidéo as 8:00 time and you will see it. From my point of vue, he was a little more in the water than my Bigfoot. But still floating...

My buddy is working on a new lightweight version of this kit. As soon as i got some more pick of it , i'll posted them.

I have a 2003 conquest,Is there a springer kit available for this model.I am very interested in one but cant seem to find any info on where to purchase or price.Could someone email me that info please.thanks

[lewis]

Martwell.... i don't speak their language but i do know when people are having a great time and Yeehaw is pretty much universal. That was a torture test for man and machine. Loved the still shots mixed in and it really shows the machines capabilities. Great video pal

Foot note: How many went to the doctor the next day for spine adjustments?

Martwell, thanks for those videos. Since i have a 06 Avenger i know the ride. I was amazed at the filmed ride at the end from the passenger camera. I have one of Whipper's springer systems on my racer and it is a great ride.

I think it looks fantastic and amazingly simple.

A couple questions
(1) Has it affected the number of people that it can carry?
(2) Water handling has that part been affected?
Water testing may be one of your future tests. Would be interested in a video of that test also.

Just by the design the traction should have improved due to more wheels staying in contact with the ground.

Again great video, looks great and keep the videos coming.

Hello everyone, thanks for your nice comment on mu buddy's sprigner kits and sorry for not responding sooner, i was away from the computer and working a lot.

Whipper, i got more videos coming, i'm working on the next one where we gonne see the Frontier Sprigner in water ... To help you wait, here is one of our last ride(last week-end), you can see both the frontier and the Avenger during a river ride...

For the capacity of charge, it remain the same because the suspension is design to be ajustable, so you can make if firmer if you need to.

He feels his Frontier seem to be less stable in the water but i told him that i also have to be seating in the middle in my Bigfoot to be level in the water. This was the first prototype that was made and the suspensions plates underneat were bulletproff !!!(too thick) Since that he reduce the thickness of those plates, reducing the weight without compromising the solidity of the kit.

On the Avenger, he put all of the 8 wheels at the same lever so all of the 8 shocks will work together with the same pressure. My friend didn't wanted to put more stress on the 4 innner
spring to keep it easier to turn, he prefer more traction with all the wheels on the ground.

The next time that we go riding together, i will stole his key for a little joyride.... stay tuned

Add me to the people that are amazed by your movie and pictures. I will be asking for a price before I think about an HDI. Argo's new sprung tractor seats become completely unnecessary. Congratulations to everyone involved!

Ditto on the swimming question...

Does it swim?

I think its an obvious next step for the Argo but if it can't swim its more of a lost cousin than evolution.

Either way, very nice.

What a super job! It looks like a pleasure to ride now.. I'm sure everyone want's to see more including myself. Keep those pics & video's comming.
