I think Look makes all of their frames in-house, which is a bit unusual. For what it's worth (who knows?), BB expert Hambini thinks that they have the best press fit BBs available. Look hasn't quite gone as crazy with integration and proprietary nonsense as some other makers, which is likely another plus.
Look designs all of their bikes in-house as well as the cuts of the carbon cloth and how to paste them together but they are put together in Malaysia. Nevertheless they have flawless construction. I expect that Look has a very strong quality control. I had one of the original Look 295's and rode it for years without any problems. This 485 is better in all aspects whether it be ride or weight.
