Shepard Fairy Bike!
Check the paint job on Lance’s bike – that’s Shepard Fairey of Obey Giant and Obama posters fame. Damn. We posted earlier on Lance working with Fairy on a mural, but didn’t know a bike was commissioned.

Notes
- Was just talking about Obey Giant with Simple Scott during Mobile Social @ An Event Apart – Scott designed the Obama campaign.
- Mellow Johnnys has many of Lance’s art bikes, including the Baba Ganoush
- More details on the bike.
- More on Obey.
Another great example of how bikes are part of pop culture and crossing over into modern art. Now to see art merged with transportation and cargo bikes.
