I was mistaken... it's just under 5000 feet climbing over 7.6 miles, so average is just above 12%. But there are some really steep sections.

I'm considering parting out this bike. I cringe at the thought, but I have too many bikes and not enough money.
don't sell it
what it does is completely underated and unique. sell something else less special

I'd like to trade my THM Clavicula crankset (130 BCD) for a THM or similar compact (110 or 104 BCD) crankset. Bottom bracket has been upgraded to hybrid ceramic bearings. I'll also include a well used (but not abused) set of Fibre-Lyte Chainrings (52/38). I'd like another THM Clavicula, Lightning, or something similarly light weight in a 170mm length. Please contact me if you are interested in a trade.

I found this, brand new, in the box, at a swap meet. Had to buy it.

I still really enjoy my Ghisallo. But my English is my go-to bike. The fit is so much better. One of these days I want to combine the best qualities of both.

I know it's a bit of a long shot and i already posted in the wanted forum but is anyone interested in selling a size medium Ghisallo? Have the opportunity to buy a size small locally but I would prefer the extra top tube length.
Thanks!
Thanks!
