Specialized Bicycles

 

During my internship at Specialized bicycles I have been given incredible opportunities to support the design team with many high profile and outward facing projects that have ranged from creating production art to be sent to factories, all the way to designing and painting bikes myself in house.   

 
 

Levi’s Gran Fondo S-WORKS Roubaix

I designed and painted an S-works Roubaix for Levi Liephiemer to ride at the Levi’s Gran Fondo in support of the King Ridge Foundation. The bike features a black base with a hint of aqua pearl, electric blue metal flake, a metallic gold paint, and gold chrome accents.  

 

 

Specialized Foundation Roval 321 disc wheel

Along with another Specialized Bikes designer, I designed a special decal kit to be applied to blank Roval 321 disc wheels for both the Bora Hansgohe and Quickstep Floors teams to ride in the 2018 Tour de France. The wheels were to bring awareness to the Specialized Foundation.

Unfortunately, things don’t always go according to plan and the teams were given stock wheels to decal instead of the intended blank ones.

 

The Specialized Foundation Tarmac

I designed and painted this S-WORKS Tarmac to be raffled off at the Sagan Fondo to benefit the Specialized Foundation (learn more about their work to combat ADHD Here). The frame is black with silver metal flake. The logos are white with a blue pearl on top. To round out the bike there are signatures of every Specialized Athlete who raced in the Amgen Tour of California.

 
 

GoPro x Nicholi Rogatkin P-Slope

I custom painted a Specialized P-Slope the Specialized Design Group concepted. This bike was used for a raffle with GoPro and Nicholi Rogatkin on Pinkbike (Found Here). The frame is black and metallic grey with accents of bright red.

 

Specialized S-WORKS Epic Supacaz colab

I worked with the team over at Supacaz to help create this collaboration bike. My job was to take the computer rendering provided and create the production art required to send off to the factory for the creation of this bike.

 
 

Reflective Stumpjumper

I painted this custom 2018 Stumpjumper for one of the engineers in Specialized’s Applied Technology Group. The frame is a gloss carbon with the retro Stumpjumper in black reflective.
