-Cofidis ows 300k to DeRosa because of the leaks

[Aress]

Not just because of the leaks, derosa already had beef with Cofidis but leaks are part of it

So i got new inforamtion:
-Bike wont be realeased in 2023
-All the riders are extremly happy with the bike
-Cofidis ows 300k to DeRosa because of the leaks

I would not say because of the leaks, but because they rode a different bike before the end of the contract.

The lack of official pictures from Cofidis training camp was quite telling... If there was a clause in their contract I would not be surprised that De Rosa had someone fly to the training camp with a camera just to sneak those pictures.
On paper quite a cost-effective strategy

This is not true. Availbility of new bike is planned for early summer.

Yes, the Bike will be available in August.

I was very afraid to commit to a 795 RS like I did one month ago, simply because I was advised by Look importer themselfs that they had the new bike presentation comming just one month ahead.

Now, after looking at the new bike... I'm very pleased with my decision of buying a 795 RS!

I would be happy even if I had bought it without a discount, imagine how happy I am knowing I got it at a huge black Friday discount

Same, seeing this I’m really pleased to have decided to go for the current 795 Blade RS also. I’m a fan of the unique top tube design, the new one for sure is a bit boring and samey to every other major brand unfortunately.

So is that supposed to be the 785 Huez? If it's a replacement for 795 Blade it's such a boring bike, just like every other bike in 2022... I'll try to get a Blade right now

I've talked about this with the local Look official importer today and they couldn't believe what I was telling them! They had no information from Look itself and the store owner had to personally contact a Cofidis Team rider which he knows to ask him if the image posted in this thread was true or a montage!

From the Cofidis rider: "it's a prototype that we are all trying out at this time and we don't know any more than this!"

Why does anyone think it's a fixed month this early?
There's already a market with vaporware, no need for Look to add to the list.

Why does anyone think it's a fixed month this early?

Because Look is a company and nothing is getting done without exact scheduling.

Yes, but... if it is a protype or actually several with different layups, you still say there is a set date for release.
I doubt that!
However, ....
If it's a ready made model painted with logo, accents and stuff, yes, i believe there's a date more or less precise.

It's the 795 replacement. Though geo the pro team uses may be different from final production models. July is planned for availability, but it may move forwards or backwards.

If it really is the 795 replacement... that's a shame 795 is a much nicer looking bike!
