Technologies
• AERODYNAMIC FRAME

The new LOOK 596 was created to push the envelope of aerodynamic frame performance. Aerodynamics define this frame. The latest advances in wind tunnel testing have been incorporated into the design of this frameset. And just not the frame itself, but also how the frame and rider interact on the road. Aerodynamics and frame rigidity often conflict with each other. LOOK engineers have carefully created a frame which respects both stiffness and aerodynamics to create a frame that can deliver up to a 10% performance increase in real-world racing conditions.

• THREE SUB-MODULE FRAME CONSTRUCTION

The frame is constructed in three sub-assembly monocoques
-Front triangle including seat tube
-Right rear triangle
-Left rear triangle
The attachment of the stays to the main triangle is done using an aerospace technique that increases the contact surfaces between the connected tubes to improve the strength and rigidity of the attachment area.

• ZED MONOCOQUE CRANKSET

The I-PACK frame is delivered with the new innovative ZED crankset. Both crankarms are made via a one piece molded construction which delivers an unparalleled strength to weight ratio. The ZED crankset weighs in at only 320 grams. Its unique design allows it to be installed in our proprietary 596 bottom bracket that uses oversized 65mm bearings. Trilobé technology allows the crank lengths to be changed from 170 to 172.5 or 175 without changing crankarms. The cranks are also compatible with standard or compact bolt patterned chainrings.

• E-POST R 32 ADJUSTABLE

The R32 adjustable E-POST offers +/- 32mm fore-aft adjustment relative to the seat tube axis. This is accomplished by the reversible saddle cradle which can be oriented 360º.

• AERO OFFSET FORK

The offset aero LOOK fork was the object of the same aero research that was carried out on the frames. It is extremely important that all frame components are studied as a unit when aerodynamic testing is done. When you look at the frame head-on, the frame almost visually disappears behind the fork. The integrated indexed stem creates a ultra-stiff cockpit. LOOK's offset aero fork design was one of the first of its kind and remains one of the most mimic'd front fork designs in the industry. This fork however remains one of the narrowest profiles as it does not require the use of a conventional steerer tube design.

• INDEXED CARBON STEM

The stem is composed of two carbon arms retained by an aluminum collar. This permits an indexed adjustment from two different points of reference for height adjustment (top and bottom). The stem is available in five sizes which permits a very exact cockpit position in height and length.
