Specialized's creative director Robert Egger has been designing brilliant bikes for the American brand since 1987 so he's had a hand in some of the most iconic serious road machines of the past 30 years. But he also gets to let his imagination run wild and the results are amazing – what's not like about the pink GoGo bike with it's built-in cocktail cabinet?
