Look 795 Blade 3 RS Dura-Ace Di2 Bike

Look 795 Blade 3 RS Dura-Ace Di2 Bike is Look's current top-tier aero race platform, built for riders who want a WorldTour-proven machine without compromise. This build pairs an Ultra High Modulus carbon frame and fork with a full Shimano Dura-Ace Di2 groupset and Mavic Comete 50 wheels, placing it firmly in the category of race-focused carbon road bikes rather than all-day endurance machines. Look markets the 795 Blade RS as "born to race, built for you," and the spec sheet backs that positioning up — nothing on this build reads like a placeholder or a compromise pick.

Look developed and tested the current 795 Blade RS alongside Team Cofidis, and the brand states a prototype took a WorldTour race win before the bike was officially launched. That's the idea behind Look's "same bike as the pros" pitch — there's no separate consumer-grade frame hiding behind the marketing. Look also reports that the aero-focused shape saves around 15 watts over the previous 795 Blade generation, a figure the brand frames as worth roughly two and a half minutes across a mountain stage at Tour de France race speed. Those numbers come from Look's own wind tunnel and road testing rather than independent verification here, but they point to where the design effort went: a frame built to reward sustained power rather than one built around a single flattering claim.

The build kit carries that racing intent through every touchpoint. Shimano's Dura-Ace Di2 R9250/R9270 groupset handles shifting and braking, paired with a 52/36 crankset and an 11-34 12-speed cassette — enough range to hold a straight 52-tooth ring through the mountains without giving up top-end speed on the flats. Hydraulic disc brakes with 160mm front and 140mm rear rotors provide the stopping power to match, and a Praxis T47 bottom bracket keeps power transfer stiff through the crank. Dura-Ace Di2 shifting means quick, consistent gear changes under load, which matters more on a bike built for racing than one built for weekend miles.

Mavic's Comete 50 wheelset carries the aero theme through to the rims, built for depth and stiffness on a bike that runs full hydraulic discs rather than a rim brake track to babysit. Look's own componentry rounds out the front end: an Aero Carbon RS3 handlebar and matching Aero Carbon stem, both shaped to keep a rider's hands and forearms in cleaner airflow, plus a Look Aeropost 5 Carbon seatpost. A Selle Italia SLR L3 Carbon saddle and Vittoria Corsa Pro TLR tires in a 700x29 size round out the contact points — tubeless-ready rubber that's become the standard choice for riders chasing lower rolling resistance without giving up puncture protection. The frame clears up to 34mm, leaving room to size up tires for rougher pavement without changing the bike's race intent.

Look builds, paints, and quality-checks every 795 Blade RS at its factory in Burgundy, France, backing the frame with a lifetime warranty and testing it, by the brand's account, well beyond the legal minimum standard. That tracks with a company that's spent 40 years building race bikes and still treats frame construction as something done in-house. This particular build — Silver/Red, available in sizes XS through XL — suits a rider who already knows they want a race bike and isn't looking for the brand to talk them into it: someone chasing local crits, gran fondos, or the specific feeling of a bike that disappears underneath you when the effort goes up. At $12,200, it's a serious purchase, but it arrives with a complete top-tier groupset, aero wheels, and a frame carrying a genuine WorldTour pedigree.
