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:

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!
