LOOK have finally entered the gravel bike market with its 765 Gravel RS. Unlike others, which are suited for bike-packing, this one follows in LOOK's strong road-racing heritage and is designed for high-performance gravel riding.
The frame is part of LOOK’s RS line, meaning it is made from a blend of high and intermediate modulus carbon, just like their best road bikes. Carefully shaped seatstays provide vertical flexion, while beefy chainstays retain lateral stiffness. The drive-side stay is dropped to increase tire clearance, safely fitting up to 40mm rubber on 700c wheels, and 2.1-inch tires on 650b hoops.
The best feature of this bike is the very quick and precise steering - whereas many gravel bikes are a little sluggish in the front end, made for stability and comfort, this bike can handle aggressive steering - it is definitely a road racer’s gravel bike!!
Complete bikes start from £3,499
