ON-TRACK WINGMAN
You can’t tame a great white shark, nor should you headbutt a bull or ask Italians if they like pineapple on their pizza. If it’s an adrenaline spike you’re searching for, there are safer ways to get your desired shot of dopamine.
We’re not saying track riding is by definition any safer than putting pineapple on pizza, but we do guarantee we’ll have your back when you’re out on track.
Don’t thank us, thank the MotoGP riders who ride with our latest creations and aid our tailors at the MACNA Vantage Point (MVP) in Molvena, Italy with development of prototypes into innovative gear.
That’s what we call rapid innovation!


INSPECT, CLEAN, REPAIR
Balancing on the fine line of the limit often results in a one-way ticket to the gravel trap. It’s the risk that comes with the sport. Main thing to worry about: is the rider alright? If so, then it’s time to go again and rush for the service centre.
Parked at the MotoGP paddock, the service trailer is the workplace of our racing support team. They make sure the suits are inspected, cleaned, repaired, or even replaced for a new one if needed.
In return, the racing manager receives the first feedback from the rider, which is then forwarded to the MACNA Vantage Point (MVP) in Italy for first analyses, marking the start of the innovation process.
TEAMWORK
The most experienced rider in our stables was born in San Giovanni Rotondo, Italy, on 5th July 1986. Pirro started his career on 125cc bikes in 2003 and became back-to-back champion of the Italian Superstock class in 2007 and 2008.
2010 and 2011 saw Michele participate in the Moto2 championship, where he secured a pole position and two podiums, one of which was a victory. After only two years of competing in Moto2, the Italian made the step to MotoGP. Of his fourteen years in MotoGP, Michele spent most of his time on a Ducati, primarily testing and developing.
Aside from several Wildcards to participate in different events, Pirro can also be found competing in the Italian Superbike (CIV) series. He has ridden over 100 races, and has won over 70 races and multiple CIV championships.
Working together with (experienced) professional athletes such as Michele enables us to develop our gear based on their priceless feedback, resulting in innovative and high-quality gear for both track and road. Teamwork makes the dream work.

YOUNG TALENT
We also support the youngest fanatics of the sport through the Race Kids motorsports academy. Despite being made for the smallest sizes, the suits and gloves are far from immature: they are held to the same safety standards as the adult versions. This way, we can ensure a safe and fun introduction to the sport.
Race Kids are located in the Netherlands, where they introduce children of 7 years and older to riding motorcycles. Kids ride on mini bikes, but it is also possible to ride a shifter bike for those who’ve outgrown the mini bikes.
The organisation provides the motorcycle to ride on, a MACNA suit to wear during the day, and of course the needed guidance.


2025 RACING LINE-UP
Being real motorcycle freaks it doesn’t come as a surprise that we love motorcycle racing.
For many years we’ve been supporting riders in MotoGP, Moto2, Moto3, Moto-E and many other championships around the globe.
This year is no exception, and we’ve even had the pleasure of adding some more talent to our racing family!
