The top tube is an enhanced diamond oval with ridge stiffeners that
counters the side-to-side flex and torsion of even the most aggressive climb. Monster
down tube is bi axially shaped to maximize force resistance at both ends while
providing super strong backbone. Custom derailleur hanger mates perfectly with
the ultra broad-based seat tube. The straight seat stays increase ride stiffness
and handling characteristics. Asymmetrical chain stays are engineered to give
maximum strength and power transfer during extreme acceleration. The miniscule
and super light dropouts are machined from billet titanium and feature a replaceable rear derailleur
hanger for easy maintenance.
The crisp power transfer of the super light Ghisallo is enhanced by the PFT intersection at the
bottom bracket. The massive down tube is vertically ovalized at the head tube
to give incredible strength at that joint. Both the down tube and seat tube flatten
at the bb to provide amazing stiffness through the power zones of your pedal stroke. Note the
sharp ridge lines on the sides of these tubes. This serves to counter the extreme torsion and
bending forces that occur during climbing and sprinting. |
