The 2019 Tour de France saw Peter Sagan take his seventh green jersey, the prize awarded to the leader in the points classification dominated by sprinters.

To celebrate his victory, Bora–Hansgrohe’s bike sponsor Specialized issued the Slovak rider with a stunning custom-painted S-Works Venge, which he rode on stage 21 of the Tour into Paris.

The S-Works Venge is Specialized’s flagship aero race bike, stablemate to the Tarmac. It’s a bells-and-whistles race machine, but one which is markedly more real-world practical than its predecessor, the Venge ViAS.

Specialized actually offered 100 of the Sagan 7x framesets for sale, with a price tag of $7,000 (a $1,500 premium over the standard S-Work Venge). We’re afraid you’re too late to nab one, though. According to the brand, every single one sold out within 30 minutes of them being offered for sale.

Still, that won’t stop us ogling Sagan’s bike in the gallery above.
