Corny directed me towards this thread today. The Ghisallo is very, very light for a titanium frame and only really suits a lightweight, sub 65 kg, rider. Does it have the flared cups on the headtube? If so, then avoid it as Litespeed had a production problem that meant these cracked with alarming regularity. The frame is a write off if that happens. They've subsequently gone back to a non-integrated headset design.
I love my titanium frame and am about to take delivery of a new one. If you can afford it then it's the ideal frame material, light, strong and it doesn't corrode.
