920 TECHNOLOGy
The 920 is the first MTB to feature LOOK integration technology.
Thanks to the A-Stem, it offers optimum steering precision and handling. All
details have been taken care of when designing this frame to give you lightweight,
efficiency and rigidity.
A-STEM
The 920 innovates by incorporating our
direct drive concept in its MTB version.
The direct drive concept refers to the
optimization of the cockpit with the goal
of rigidity, reliability and safety to reach a
maximum performance level. We arrive at
this result through the use of a short and
tapered head tube (1 1/2 ” below and 1 1/8 ”
above) and the suppression of spacers since
the adjustment of the handlebars’ height is
now done through the use of our A-Stem.
SINGLE
PIVOT
KINEMATICS
The kinematics of the 920 is of single-pivot
type with tip over rocker.
The main pivot point was precisely
positioned to obtain the desired rear wheel
path, the geometry and the position of the
rocker were subject to long hours of work
and of numerous tests to obtain the shock

absorption ratio curves and thus the desired
path of the rear suspension, resulting in
a high level of rigidity and an exemplary
behaviour.
Our experience in the use of carbon allowed
us to continue further: we replaced the pivot
point located on the stays by an accurately
calculated flat section that allows us to
do without rolling bearing, the stays bend
when the suspension operates offering an
unequalled level of reliability. We thus obtain
more laterally rigid stays, which is easier
and does not require more maintenance.
All the components of the 920 Kit carbon
are made of carbon, from the single-piece
front triangle to the asymmetric rear triangle,
including its rocker and its seatpost, you
thus fully profit of the performance level and
lightness that our control of carbon procures.
PROTECTIONS
Once again, LOOK has not overlooked
the protection of your MTB frame, the
920 has our moulded metallic protection
in the diagonal tube, we have added a
cable guide under the bottom bracket that
acts as a “shoe” as well as an aluminium
protection on the right base at plates level
to prevent damaging the carbon in case of
chain lifts.
CARBON
ROCKER
The carbon rocker allows a gain of 50gr in
relation to its aluminium counterpart, it is the
final optimisation touch for this upper range
version of the 920 on which every ounce
counts.
