PRODUCT MODEL YEAR: (2011)
PRODUCT OPTIONS: 53cm Medium IN STOCK
Description: LOOK is launching the brand new 695: a frame offering unequalled cycling precision thanks to the integration of the stem, the headset, the fork and an exceptional performance thanks to its crankset.
The 695 puts the CFD (Continuous Fibre Design) in application : the shape of the tubes is studied so that the carbon fibres work along the best axis, optimizing their mechanical performance.
The ZED 2 crankset, the frame’s nerve centre, is the culmination of 5 years of research, was tested by athletes and validated at the Beijing Olympics. It brings a new world record to the weight/rigidity performance.
To answer to the demands of all the competitors, the 695 is available in two versions:
- 695 version brings some flexibility for racers looking for a bike with a more flexible and less demanding behaviour. This version will be more adapted to cyclists covering long distances.
• COMPLETE INTEGRATION PACK
For optimal effort transmission, the 695 is equipped with the best crankset presently available on the market : the ZED 2 crankset.
To integrate it, the 695 has an oversized bottom bracket (Rolling bearings of 65 mm). The diagonal tube, saddle tube and stays wrap around the casing and extend without a break in shape thanks to the CFD concept (Continuous Fibre Design) optimising resistance to effort.
The new HSC 7 fork, the new Head Fit 3 headset, the C-stem and the E-Post are the other components integrated with the 695 frame. They were specifically developed for that frame, to make the 695 homogenous, rigid, lightweight, stable and easy to handle.
• 1/ ZED 2 SINGLE-PIECE CARBON CRANKSET
The ZED 2 carbon crankset that comes with the 695 is a brand new highly innovative model :
It is moulded in a single piece of carbon (2 pedal cranks axis star = FULL SINGLE-PIECE).
It reaches a rigidity / weight ratio that was not possible before. The crankset alone (with no roller bearing or chain wheel) but including the two pedal cranks and the axis only weigh 320 grams!
Its particular Z shape allows it to be mounted in the frame that has a specific and oversized casing (rolling bearings diameter 65 mm). The technology of the three-lobe insert at the end of pedal cranks allows adjusting the length of the cranks from 170, 172.5 to 175 mm without changing the crankset and while being compatible with all the pedals on the market.
