The Eddy Merckx MXL was the first bike Lance Armstrong rode as a professional at Team Motorola. Designed in collaboration with Columbus, the MXL features oversized, oval-shaped tubing designed to create a stronger and stiffer steel frameset capable of withstanding the demands of daily racing. This innovation was well-received by Team Motorola, who ...
The Fondriest X Status was a high-end road bike produced by the Italian company Fondriest, designed for the 1997 season. While the bike itself boasted impressive features, its iconic status within the context of Lance Armstrong’s career is not due to the quality of the bike or the victories it achieved. Instead, it holds a special place in history ...
In 1999, Lance Armstrong rode the Trek 5500, a bike that featured the company’s OCLV carbon fiber road frame technology, which had been introduced in 1992.

This particular model debuted the lighter OCLV 110 carbon, reducing the frame’s weight to a mere 2.75 lb (1.25 kg). Additional improvements included a more substantial 1 1/8″ steerer tube, a threadless headset, and 9-speed Shimano Dura-Ace components....

It acted more as an enhancement of the 5900...
During his pursuit of a seventh consecutive Tour de France victory, Armstrong paid tribute to his fight against cancer with a prototype Trek TTX time trialframe.

In 2009, Lance Armstrong rode a custom-painted Trek Madone to commemorate his first appearance at the Giro d’Italia. Contemporary artist Shepard Fairey designed an intricate pattern inspired by classic Italian architecture.

Lance Armstrong’s Butterfly Madone was designed by British artist Damien Hirst to celebrate Armstrong’s comeback at the 2009 Tour de France. The bike was eventually auctioned off for half a million dollars, making it the most expensive bike in the world. The auction, which included six other Armstrong’s Trek bikes, raised a total of $1.3 million fo...
In 2010, Lance Armstrong made a comeback to the Tour of Flanders, riding a Trek Madone 6 Series that differed from the one he used in 2005.

These included a tapered front end, molded-in bearing seats at the head tube and bottom bracket, a wide down tube and ...
