Hello,
I've recently developed ti fever. I would like to attempt a ghisallo build. I'm looking for a ghisallo frame set with a top tube ranging from 56-58cm and in relatively good condition ideally with no dings etc. If you do have a 2006-8 frame for sale, I would be seeking one with a front derailleur mount included.
I am based on the UK so the seller would have to be happy to post. Naturally I will bear this cost on top of the frame. I can pay by PayPal. Please feel free to email me

Careful you don't buy this frame http://weightweenies.starbike.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=137500&start=15 which appearsto be a poorly welded Ghisallo that should have never left the factory.

There's sometimes a buggy.
How many drivers does a buggy have?
One.
So let's just say I'm drivin' this buggy...
and if you fix your attitude you can ride along with me.

Sorry Jekyll Man! I wasn't sure where to find the correct forum. Do all the 2006 models have this misaliged rear end issue? Or is this just a bad egg?

If you take the time to look through the thread I posted, you will see that the original Ghisallos were commonly sold with DuraAce 53/39 cranksets. The OP of the thread had a frame where a 53/39 crank could not be fitted without interference with the chainstay. The photos, especially in comparison with other Ghisallo frame photos appeared to show chainstays incorrectly located on the BB before welding.
So, no, not a common problem. Obviously the frame should take a standard crankset without interference.

Indeed. However the chainstays are so thin that it could not be shaped to provide clearance to accommodate a standard crankset.
