Cam Brown Ghisallo Pic's? Can't Post
Does anyone know where I mught find a picture or two of Cameron Brown's Litespeed Ghisallo? I found one, but it didnt show the bike very well. I'm curious how he had his Ghisallo setup for racing. Bars, wheels, seatpost etc.

I recall it being shown/reviewed in either Triathlete or Inside Tri some time back. Check back through last year's editions or their sites for pro rides or try Xtri.com

That's certainly not a stock Ghisallo...in fact, I'd say that picture is not a Ghisallo at all...A Ghisallo does NOT have an integrated headset...and the top tube on that frame looks more or less horizontal...the Ghisallo's is sloping...By the tube shapes...that looks more like a Vortex (as opposed to the Ultimate with its carbon seatstays)...

I don't think this is the pic the original poster needs...

TriBri is right. That looks like a Vortex based on the top tube. He has riden that as well as a Blade in photos. There are some Ghisallo photos here - see Switzerland under photos- http://xtri.com/...eronbrown/photos.asp

You are right I went to the Litespeed website and the headtube looks more like Vortex. The pic I posted earlier is from Ironman Germany in July 2004 and the pics below which show a sloping toptube like the Ghisallo are from training in Switzerland in June 2004 (http://xtri.com/...0%20%20%20%20%201207 ).

Interestingly enough I dug a little bit and found this article on xtri about Cam Brown being hit by a car 10 days before the race (http://xtri.com/...0%20%20%20%20%201228 ). In the article he says that his bike was O.K. but I guess for one reason or another he switched. Maybe someone else may know something else. Sorry about the earlier pic.
