Premium cycling apparel brand Café du Cycliste and LOOK Cycle, leader in cycling innovation and craftsmanship, have announced a limited edition collection of products hand-picked for road and gravel cycling, combining high performance with essential French style.
With its rich history in technical innovation and design, LOOK is the pedal designer and manufacturer of choice for the pro-peloton and keen amateurs around the world. Café du Cycliste has a reputation for designing high performance apparel using state of the art fabrics, all with a unique French flair.
The two iconic French brands have set out to encapsulate the ‘freedom of the bike’ with two limited edition packs - one celebrating road cycling, while the other highlights the road less travelled - combining Café du Cycliste’s shoes and socks with LOOK’s road and gravel pedals.
An eye-catching tie-dye design runs across the products in both the road and gravel packs, making each item completely unique. Each pack comes in a specially-designed presentation box.
The limited-edition pack dedicated to road cycling brings together the latest Café du Cycliste carbon sole road shoes and custom tie-dye patterned performance socks with a set of coordinating LOOK KEO Blade Carbon Ceramic pedals. Café du Cycliste’s FishGrid heel support technology, Solestar insole and carbon outsoles are a high-performance complement to LOOK’s KEO Blade Carbon Ceramic pedals. Proven by WorldTour professionals and ridden by performance-focused cyclists around the world, KEO Blade Carbon Ceramic pedals provide unmatched power transfer, optimal contact surface and smooth ceramic bearings.
Whether riding on mud, rock or asphalt, the combination of Café du Cycliste’s carbon soled, high-grip gravel shoes with the stability of LOOK’s X-TRACK Race Carbon Ti pedals brings a balance of power and control across all terrains, whilst the unique white and grey tie-dye pattern guarantees a stand out look. Designed to deliver unrivalled support and stability, LOOK’s X-TRACK Race Carbon Ti pedals are used at the highest level on the most demanding routes. They are SPD compatible, lightweight and offer gravel racers and riders a large contact surface for unrivalled support.
The limited editionCafé du Cycliste x LOOK road and gravel packs can be purchased online at lookcycle.com and cafeducycliste.com and will be available in select stores worldwide. Both limited edition packs will be priced at €490 or local equivalent.
