From the manufacturer's official website:
Features:
When you first pick up the 2006 Litespeed Ghisallo you'll think, "That's not possible!" Yet, here it is handcrafted from titanium alloy and engineered to be the lightest production race bike in the universe. Every frame is individually weight certified. This is not a bike for mere mortals. Indeed, you might not be ready for this much performance.
Technology:
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.
