The frame isn't the only custom element of Sagan's bike. His Speedplay Zero pedals are custom-built with high-tension springs normally reserved for track riders. Photo credit: Jeff Bartlett

Even with a 58-cm-long top tube on Sagan's custom frame, he still rides a 130-mm stem to accommodate his long torso and reach. Photo credit: Jeff Bartlett
