The 795 BLADE RS geometry is tailored for competition, optimizing the rider's position for aerodynamics and maximum power transfer. The bike is exceptionally stable at high speeds and offers flawless handling. Though it is unapologetically aggressive, adjustment options are numerous to answer the needs of different types of cyclists. Featuring full integration, the ergonomics of the frame and components allow you to fine-tune your riding position, whilst the clever handlebar and stem combo make changing the stem length or handlebar width particularly easy. A key asset to make the most of the 795 BLADE RS’ impressive dynamic qualities.

Wind? What wind? The 795 BLADE RS is born to slice through the air. With painstaking wind tunnel testing on the frame and component, the bike is the most worthy ambassador of LOOK Cycle’s aerodynamic expertise, born from years of road and track cycling experience. Each tube section is specifically-shaped to reduce drag and optimize handling precision. Every detail counts when it comes to integration; from the integrated seatpost to the placement of the water bottles, the sharp lines and streamlined design serve the ultimate goal of ultra-high performance.

The professional riders of the Cofidis cycling team were instrumental throughout the development process, helping us fine-tune every aspect of the 795 BLADE RS to meet the demands of top-level racing: power transfer, vibration absorption, stiffness and responsiveness. Hours of testing on the road and in the wind tunnel with precise data led us to the best carbon layup and the right geometry choices. The result? A race-optimized machine that delivers a unique riding feel and top-end performance, whether you're sprinting at 70 km/h, working hard in the early break or attacking at the top of a mountain pass.
