Eurobike – 4 – miscellaneous


Look ZED

This is probably one of the most integrated component of the Eurobike. Look definitely pushed the enveloppe with its Zed crankset.
Basically, this component is composed of a single piece of carbon, and a couple of metallic parts. Both arms and the bottom bracket/axle are integrated. Thus, the installation is extremely
easy, we just need to pass one arm through the frame, then lock it with a threaded cup.
It is compatible with both the standard and compact transmissions, the Trilobe adjustement makes the three most usual arm length easy to set, i.e. 170mm – 172,5mm – 175mm
Looks claims it reaches new standards of stiffness, and stiffness to weight ratios.

coming in white and black.
