In cycling, a sport largely defined by the movements of the pack, arguably its brightest star is beloved for his unorthodox style—in and out of the saddle. Slovakia-born cyclist Peter Sagan is bringing some much needed fun and excitement to the extremely serious business of racing bikes. Famous for riding wheelies across the finish line and Tokyo Drift-ing his way around corners, Sagan doesn’t ride like a typical member of the peloton, because he isn’t typical. And neither is the new Sagan Collection, released with longtime sponsor—and fellow style and performance aficionados—Specialized.
The aptly named Disruption collection is geared toward watt-monitoring roadies, but will surely be appreciated too by everyday riders who may otherwise associate the name Sagan more with the cosmos than the Tour de France.
