795 Blade RS - KG Edition
The legendary KG86 carbon frame
The KG Legacy
The KG86 holds a central place in cycling history, having revolutionized the sport in 1986 as the first carbon frame to win the Tour de France. That year, Greg LeMond rode the KG86 to his famous victory, marking the beginning of a new era for the discipline.
Its innovative design combined monocoque carbon and Kevlar tubes, bonded into aluminum lugs, creating a hybrid structure that offered unprecedented lightness, stiffness, and vibration absorption. Weighing less than 9 kilograms complete, it delivered a radically different riding experience compared to the steel frames of its time—more efficient when climbing, more comfortable, and giving riders a decisive advantage.
Its distinctive angular geometry and bold tricolor graphics already made it a futuristic symbol within the professional peloton.
Recreating an Icon
The 795 Blade RS is LOOK’s fastest bike to date — engineered for victory and proven at the highest level of the UCI WorldTour with Team Cofidis. Developed in collaboration with professional riders, it achieves an optimal balance of carbon layering, aerodynamics, and stiffness, delivering unmatched race performance.
Every detail of the 795 Blade RS — from the shape of its tubes to the precision of its finish — has been refined through wind tunnel testing and decades of road and track expertise, minimizing drag and enhancing precision for pure aerodynamic efficiency.
The 795 Blade RS KG Edition bridges past and present. Its distinctive design combines vintage tricolor motifs and silver accents with an exposed carbon finish, showcasing the material that revolutionized cycling performance and continues to define the modern frame. Each element pays tribute to the KG86, seamlessly integrated into LOOK Cycle’s most advanced aero racing platform.
