With the Tour de France underway, Trek offers an overview of Lance Armstrong’s sextuplet of artist customized bicycles. Along with more detailed views of the rolling canvases by KAWS, Shepard Fairey, Kenny Scharf, Marc Newson, comes a closer look at the most recent bikes stylized by Japanese artist Yoshitomo Nara and shark cutter Damien Hirst.

For the 37-year-old cyclist’s return to racing, Nara decked out the time trial bicycle with his childish drawings and a hidden message for Armstrong as he’s mashing gears: “Never Forget Your Beginner’s Spirit.” All six of the STAGES bikes will be sold off on October 2nd in New York to raise money for the pro-twittering cyclist’s anti-cancer foundation.
