Hi,
I worked at a bike shop in the mid 1980s that sold Santini frames and bikes. I only recall two road models and a TT frame. As I recall, all of the models used Columbus tubing. The seat tube and head tube angles were very steep (like track bikes) but I knew a few people who rode them regularly and liked them. Their construction was standard for Italian frames, lugged and brazed. I only ever saw them in red. Never saw them in the US after the late 1980s.
Hope this helps.
