Look 795 Blade RS Ultegra Di2 Road Bike 2021

It will never cease to surprise you

What does the sound of an electronic gear shift have in common with the pop of a champagne cork? Pure pleasure, perhaps? The 795 BLADE RS Disc Carbon Champagne Mat Glossy aero bike, resplendent with SHIMANO Ultegra Di2 groupset and ultra-efficient hydraulic disc brakes, is here to prove it. Possibly because the frame, made primarily of high modulus carbon fiber, weighs barely more than a bottle of bubbly.

The disc brake decision
The updated 795 BLADE RS incorporates all the latest innovations to reach new levels of performance. Disc brakes are one of these innovations: they ensure more powerful, more progressive braking in both wet and dry road conditions. This makes for a greater sense of security and control on downhills and through corners, allowing the rider to brake later and carry speed further.

The second advantage of disc brakes is the option of mounting wider rims and tires. The 795 BLADE RS accepts tires with a section up to 700x30. The benefits of a tire holding a greater volume of air are double: the tire and rim are more aerodynamic, and tire pressure is reduced. In other words, the greater the tire section, the lower the pressure.

Contrary to popular belief, riding with lower air pressure increases the bike's efficiency: the tire absorbs the roughness of the road surface and in doing so helps to maintain speed. Riding at lower pressure also increases the contact area between the tire and the ground, which significantly improves traction. This is true on dry roads, and becomes an even more important factor when the going gets wet.
