Newer version: Look 795 Blade RS 3

The second-generation 795 Blade RS, LOOK's aero race bike from 2023 until the RS 3 arrived in mid-2026, developed with the Cofidis team. LOOK still sells it below the RS 3 as the 'Blade RS 2', in two complete builds with LOOK R45S wheels and as a frameset. LOOK says the RS 3 kept the 795's proven geometry, and its published tables for the two generations are the same.

Our verdict

Overall

out of 100, average of 5 categories

The previous 795 Blade RS at a big discount to the RS 3, with the same race geometry, a lifetime frame warranty and carbon R45S wheels on both builds. It is the older, heavier and less aero frame, and LOOK publishes almost nothing about what else comes on these builds.
