at Ballardin Cicli, Pon Favorite Ride: The Gisallo Pass Over Bellagio, with stunning Lake Como Views Bike Setup: 2004 Triple Campagnolo with FSA triple Carbon Cranckset. Cinelli RAM Handlebar. Campagnolo Hyperon tubular wheelset, Easton C 70 Seatpost, Selle Italia G3 Carbon Saddle, Campagnolo Ergobrain Computer and HAC4 hart rate monitor. Twin Campagnolo Carbon water bottle holders. Summary: After two years of Colnago C 40 rides (the Ferrari of Road Bikes), the Titanium Day finally came. The bike has the same specs with respect to the C40, which makes for direct comparison. In fact, the two bikes are surprisingly similar. They are both great accelerators and climbers, and are more that honest flat out cruisers (perhaps with higher rimmed wheels thay my Campagnolo Hyperons). In one area, however the Ghisallo excels: confort, confort, confort. It is almost unfair: gone are the road unevennesses, the ondulations, the rough asphalt of Alpine roads. You do not feel anything anymore. Perior. Get this bike if you can! Strengths: Light, confortable, yet stiff. Titanium looks. It is probably going to be the only Ghisallo in your riding area. Weaknesses: Price Similar Products Used: 2003 Colnago C 40
