Fixed gear criteriums as explained by François Février :
« These are races done on a fixed gear bicycle, so without brakes. The only way to stop is to anticipate and to try to counter the rotation and inertia of the crankset. The final race takes place after qualifying and eliminatory rounds on a short, closed urban circuit where a specific number of laps have to be completed. Classification is done according to a points system. Riders dropped from the peloton are generally eliminated. »
« LOOK has been with us since the beginning of this project. Its partnership has quickly become vital to the team’s ability to thrive and perform. Without their support, none of this would be possible. The work done by their talented crew in Nevers over the winter has been tremendous. 2017 is going to be an exceptional season.
With LOOK Cycle’s extraordinary winning record as well as its reputation in cycling history, we can’t even hide how proud we are to have them on our side. Wearing their colors is an honor, it’s a source of great motivation, not only when we are on the starting line of some of the finest criteriums, but also in our regular workouts. And these races put our equipment through some pretty rude tests. The infallible reliability of LOOK’s products is definitely a key asset throughout the season. »
