Mauro Sannino was and is a well respected italian frame builder. He know has turned to custom made (individualy measured) carbon-fiber frames under the german Corratec label. (i wonder if this is considered KOF but think it is not) Corratec is owned by a family called Irlbacher and in the eighties they had big shop and a mail-order business in Rosenheim. At that time they were the german distributors for Sannino bikes. With the upcoming MTB boom they developped their label Corratec and became one of the biggest brands in Germany. You can see Mauro working on their homepage here: http://www.corratec.com/corratec2/index.php I suspect close personal connections with Sannino lead to the idea of having him make the plastic bikes.

Hi List,

Anyone know much about 'SANNINO' frames? I know there Italian, and I think Sannino now builds for some team, possibly in Spain?

I have one which I believe to be 'on topic' Its in Columbus SLX, lugged, full slope external pantographed with a 'S'

crown, Campag short ends, drilled part way through, as are the fronts.

Quite a nice frame, heavy, but rides well, got it built up with off topic Veloc'e 10 spd group, but with Cinelli 1R

pantographed stem [Gios!] # 64 Giro bars, and a nice Chorus aero seat post.

Took it over to Tuscany and got quite a lot of interest from the local 'gruppo' ended up leaving it there with a friend who now lives in Sarteano, lucky

sod, so I can use it on future visits..........roll on March!
