Cannondale Synapse
Road Reimagined
ENDURANCE ROAD - CARBON OR ALLOY - SMART SENSE
So Smooth
With the new carbon Synapse, comfort is built-in. Increased compliance delivers discreet flex zones in the rear triangle, seat tube and seatpost that absorb road chatter and bumps without adding weight or isolating you from the ride experience.
Tyre clearance has also increased, 30mm wide tyres are fitted from new, but there is clearance for 35's.
So Fast
Every carbon model uses the same lightweight frameset. Subtle aerodynamic shaping of the frame and fork means you can ride faster with less effort. Size-specific design for perfectly tuned stiffness, ensuring all sizes deliver the same rider experience. It all adds up to a machine that loves to glide.
So Capable
The Synapse sports a comfortable and balanced riding position, finding the line between racy performance and upright comfort. Handling is confidence-inspiring, with wide tires for cushion and grip. With room for two standard bottle cages, the Synapse can take on any road, in any condition.˓
Smart Sense
Smart Sense is featured on select models and creates a digital ecosystem with the bike. One central large-capacity battery pack powers front and rear lights from Lezyne, along with radar courtesy of Garmin. A display on the bars shows the proximity of others and can use the rear light to alert vehicles as they approach.
Smart sense opens the door to increased visibility and enhanced awareness out on the road.
Cannondale App
Simply spin the wheel to activate the sensor. The Cannondale App opens up a multitude of new possibilities. The app gives control of all Smart Sense features, radar display and ride logging, telling you every detail about your bike and service intervals.
See our guide to the Cannondale App for tuning, ride diagnostics, fit information and more.
Non-proprietory parts & Extras
The new Synapse is more user friendly, easier to service, and more practical for the rider. The standard threaded bottom bracket, standard round seat post, and standard seat clamp are very welcome changes
Along with the top tube bolts for securely mounting an accessory bag, the bike also includes a bolt-on adaptor for running full-length mudguards and rear axle end caps that allow this bike to be used with turbo trainers designed for QR axles.
