The latest evolution of LOOK‘s flagship aero road bike has arrived. The new 795 Blade RS 3 builds on the French brand’s proven race platform, but instead of chasing aerodynamic gains through frame shapes alone, LOOK has put significant emphasis on the interaction between rider and bike.

While the frame itself has undergone a complete redesign, resulting in a 160-gram weight reduction together with aerodynamic improvements, the most interesting development may well be the all-new Aero Combo RS 3 cockpit.

A handlebar designed for real-world speed

Rather than simply making the cockpit narrower or more aerodynamic, LOOK has focused on helping riders maintain an efficient position for longer.

The new Aero Combo RS 3 features ergonomically angled tops that place the wrists in a more natural position when riding on the hoods. According to LOOK, this reduces upper-body fatigue and makes it easier to remain in an aerodynamic posture during long efforts or breakaways. The handlebars also incorporate a subtle sweep and flare that opens the chest when climbing, while maintaining stiffness for sprinting and precise handling.

During the product presentation, LOOK repeatedly stressed that aerodynamics are only valuable if riders can comfortably sustain the position that delivers those gains. It’s a philosophy that shifts the focus away from wind tunnel numbers alone and towards what happens after several hours in the saddle.

Built around rider fit

Beyond the cockpit, the 795 Blade RS 3 features an all-new carbon frame weighing a claimed 890 grams (size M), a redesigned 340-gram fork, a new AeroPost 5 seatpost, and clearance for tyres up to 34 mm. LOOK says the complete package saves 15 watts at 50 km/h compared with the previous generation while increasing frame stiffness where power transfer matters most.

LOOK has based much of its aerodynamic development around real riding conditions rather than purely zero-degree wind tunnel testing. The company claims the bike was optimised for crosswinds, turbulence and changing yaw angles, arguing that these scenarios better represent what riders actually encounter in racing.

Another standout feature is the level of adjustability. The new platform offers six frame sizes, seven stem lengths, multiple handlebar widths, two seatpost offsets and up to 50 mm of headset spacers, resulting in around 350 possible fit combinations.There are 4 colorways available, including the Iconic Prisme you will see at the Tour de France with Team Cofidis.
