Massacan Pianella Frame Kit

Pianella is our very first mountain bike.

And then it's our first steel bike too.

That's a lot of new things, right?

Hang in there, this is just the beginning!

1.000,00 €

A pre-order?

For the launch of Pianella, we are offering an ultra-limited pre-order system of 20 frames .

Why? Because we went to get the tubes directly from Columbus, in Italy .

It's a small-scale production, with limited quantities. We're somewhere between the artisanal micro-structure that buys its tubes almost once by once, and the big brands that subcontract to Asia with colossal volumes and production times of a year and a half.

We prefer to remain agile, responsive, and close to the field. And this pre-order of 20 frames is exactly that:

A controlled, human, and limited project.

These will be the only copies produced for the year 2025 .

So if the project excites you, don't hesitate too much : once the 20 reservations have been made, there won't be any more!

So, as we will have all the tubes in stock , we will be able to assemble your custom frame , whatever the size or geometry you choose.

So no stress: you can pre-order with peace of mind , we'll adapt to you, not the other way around.

So, for the Pianella pre-order, we ask for a €1,000 deposit.

Whether you choose just the frameset or the frameset with a fork, it’s the same amount, and it basically covers the cost of the materials and part of the production expenses.

As soon as your deposit is confirmed, we’ll get back to you to kick off the real creative phase.

We’ll go through every detail: the perfect size for you, the geometry that matches your riding style, the build best suited to your playground, and the color that will turn heads…

In short, we’ll sit down together and shape, step by step, the mountain bike you’ve been dreaming of!

Why Pianella?

And why not actually?

Paula and Paoletta are extremely skilled off-roaders. You can venture into some seriously challenging singletrack without any worries.

And for bikepacking and very long distances, the same goes for our two Gravel bikes, which more than do the job.

But hey.

If you're looking for a bike that's even more comfortable off-road and capable of taking you to the ends of the earth, loaded like a mule, we have something for you: Pianella.

And what about the geometry?

Pianella was designed as a platform that adapts to your needs and your riding style.
At its core, it features a modern cross-country geometry — the same angles you'd find on bikes that dominate World Cup podiums. But we wanted to break away from the usual race-focused vibe. The goal was to keep the performance, but give it a more timeless look — something less "race-only" and more versatile. A bike that rips, without needing the full lycra kit.

When designing the standard geometries, we had to make a call.
So we built it around a 100 mm suspension fork, with 20% sag. It's a super neutral and versatile setup.
If you prefer, you can swap in a 120 mm suspension fork for a slacker head angle and more confidence on the descents.
On the flip side, you can go with a Columbus Futura Adventure rigid fork. That'll drop the front end a bit, giving the bike a snappier, more playful character.

Long story short: we worked hard on this one — and we're stoked with how it turned out.
