Inspired by Greg LeMond, the first Tour de France rider to win on a carbon bike, the 785 Huez RS is a new lightweight addition to Look's portfolio. Using Optimized Intertia Section technology to incorporate an optimal combination of round and square carbon tubing, the frame measures only 0.6mm thickness in places!
