How good are Massif Studio’s prints?

We aim to be the gold standard of achievement memorabilia. All our prints are of exceptionally high quality. We use technologies normally reserved for fine art production: Hahnemuhle giclée prints on archival quality, heavyweight paper which gives the most premium of finishes.

What sizes are available?

We currently offer the following standard sizes:

  • Medium - 30x40cm / 12x16" - great for single-day and weekend events
  • Large - 45x60cm / 18x24" - best for multiday and longer events of up to 5 days or 1,000 kilometres
  • Extra Large - 60x80cm / 24x32" - best for the ultralong, most detailed, or most epic of challenges.

What frame options do you have?

Our Event, Personalised and Custom prints have the option of a black, solid timber frame. All our frames use optical-quality acrylic instead of glass for safe shipping.

Our Bespoke service also offers a super-premium, slimline aluminium framing option. Further details on request.

What distance measuring system is used?

Personalised print designs will use the system local to the event. For custom and bespoke prints, you can choose between either metric or US Customary (Imperial) measurements.

Are Massif Studio prints sustainable?

Yes. Being planet-aware is very important to us. Every print is made-to-order so there’s no wastage and we have a global network of printers and framers to ensure that posting distances are kept as low as possible. We insist on sustainable paper sources and bio-friendly inks.

What is the difference between Event, Personalised, Custom and Bespoke prints?

Event prints - these are fixed designs of professional events, such as the Tour de France. There are no personalisation options.

Personalised prints - these are pre-designed prints of popular participation events to which you can add your details such as name, time, personal sentence etc.

Custom prints (coming soon) - these are where you can upload your own GPX(s) and use our Massifier technology to create your own custom design for your ride, run or other achievement.

Bespoke prints - these are where you let us do the magic for you, with our in-house studio providing an end-to-end service for individual, group or partner events.

How long does the process take?

Personalised prints - With our personalised prints, all the hard design work has already been done so you can get yours off for printing in just a few minutes.

Custom prints (coming soon) - Our customisable designs will have many more layout, colour and other options available for you to play with, so you can spend as little or as long as you want perfecting a design that’s just right for your achievement.

Bespoke prints - Because of the bespoke nature of these illustrations, timings will vary. The more complex ones take longer. We could say that we'll get your print to you as soon as possible... but that would be a lie. We feel that it's more important to give each project the time it needs in order to be perfect. After all, these are your adventures we're preserving and we take that very seriously.
