The last collaborator in the Trek bike series for Lance Armstrong’s Stages initiative for the Livestrong foundation is none other than art superstar Damien Hirst. The artist customized a Trek Madone bike and added a butterfly all-over design to it.
“To help give Lance an extra boost across the finish line in this year’s Tour de France, Hirst customized a Trek Madone with a gorgeous array of real butterflies from the frame down to the Bontrager rims, which also bear a repeating pattern of the willowy creatures. Eschewing the traditional LIVESTRONG yellow in favor of bright shocking pink logos all around, Hirst brings even more attention to the cause in a colorscheme that can be easily read at nearly any distance (or speed).”
