Masi: Stories of Champions and bicycles

This limited-edition book (New Old Stock from 2018) celebrates the legacy of Masi, the legendary Milanese workshop whose bicycles, crafted inside the Vigorelli Velodrome, became icons of Italian cycling history. Through archival photographs, documents, drawings, and previously unpublished material, it retraces a century of craftsmanship, innovation, and racing heritage. The volume explores the evolution of Masi’s techniques and materials, the stories of Faliero and Alberto, and the champions who rode their bicycles: from Bini to Coppi, from Maspes to Bobet, from Magni to Merckx, and many others.

Each chapter blends historical narrative with technical insight, revealing how Masi bicycles achieved their almost mythic status across generations.
