We believe that cycling is most fun and most enjoyable when the bike fits perfectly and is tailored to the individual needs of its owner.
Cycling is our yoga. Cycling is freedom. Cycling connects people. Cycling tells many different stories and lets us experience new adventures.
In 2006 we, Christoph and Maik, founded Pasculli to share our passion and enthusiasm for cycling and beautiful bicycles with others.

How it all began
In 2005 we were in Italy to explore the wonderful and quiet roads of the Appenines and also to enjoy a daily “Apperitivo” in our favorite restaurant “Due Spade” in Bettola.
Among other things, we had an intensive discussion about the development of bicycle frame construction. Unfortunately, many brands had been reducing their frame sizes for several years and had followed the textile industry with sizes from S-XL. Finding the perfect size was no longer as easy as it had been a few years previously.
The discussion about the whys, wherefores and wherefores ended with: “LET'S TRY IT ANOTHER WAY”

While still in Italy, we found our first partner, the frame builder Francesco. Back home in Berlin, our friends, the artists Timm Kölln and Andreas Töpfer and later the passionate cyclist Andreas Hubert, were enthusiastic about the idea. The three of them actively supported the adventure.
The name? It should express our passion for classical music and beautiful bicycles. After some wild ideas, Christoph landed the hit: the “Paganini of oboists - Antonio Pasculli” became the namesake of our brand.

All Pasculli bicycle frames are first developed in Berlin. The customized models are then manufactured by hand in Italy.
Since 2017, we have also been working with Asian frame manufacturers. The Monocoque models are for cyclists who do not require a custom frame.
Bicycles are assembled in Berlin or by our partners by professional bicycle mechanics with the highest quality standards.
