Bikes have always been more than just a means of transport — providing a platform for freedom, individual expression, exploration and maybe even being a force for good — and this collaboration between artist Felipe Pantone, clothing brand Romance and Specialized aims to do it all and create a modern work of art.
The Specialized Allez Sprint frameset has been painted in the style of Felipe Pantone, using the lines, colours, shapes and pixels of his art to create a unique machine that you won't see anywhere else.
