Look KG 196 - First ever monocoque carbon frame - Full Mavic
Description:
Look KG 196 - First ever monocoque Carbon frame - Flawless almost new old stock. Full Mavix equipment.
Produced from 1991 to 1998, many professional teams used the KG 196 including Once. The KG 196 was a frame of firsts – it was their first monocoque carbon frame, their first integrated fork and first adjustable stem. That monocoque frame was a true groundbreaker.
Look created a carbon frame in a single mould, increaseing rigidity, comfort and, of course, producing a variety of shapes, which was key to aerodynamic evolution.
That aerodynamic edge tipped over to the forks, too, which resulted in better handling characteristics while giving them the ability to narrow the frontal profile.
You could also change the angle of the stem depending on your flexibility, and a final first for Look: internal routing throughout, rather than solely in the top tube as seen on previous models.
