Shepard Fairey’s Trek Madone being created for Lance Armstrong’s run in the 2009 Giro d’Italia by Trek artist Shane Siedschlag. Lance’s artist bike series is curated by Jamie O’Shea/Supertouch (supertouchart.com) in an effort to raise awareness for the upcoming “Stages” art show to benefit the Livestrong Foundation that kicks off on July 16th during the Tour de France 2009.

    Lance is a stickler on the weight of his bike, even if we’re talking about ounces. So, decals would have been the best choice. On his previous wins at THE TOUR, trek actually built up a bike that was “NUDE”, sans the paint, and only a small amount trek decals for his climbing bike.
