Cannondale Synapse Carbon 4 Disc Road Bike 2023
A fresh take on a proven formula, the all-new Cannondale Synapse Carbon 4 Disc Road Bike delivers comfort and speed on longer, endurance style rides. The frame is lightweight and responsive, with its geometry and carbon construction being identical to that of the top-tier Synapse models. A Proportional Response size-specific carbon layup ensures the same ride quality for all riders, keeping rigidity and compliance consistent across the size range for a bespoke feel. A threaded BSA bottom bracket allows for simple home servicing, while tube-in-tube internal routing makes threading cables a breeze.
Synapse Carbon 4 Frame
The all-new frame design steps above and beyond the previous editions, delivering supreme comfort with an aerodynamic twist. Compliance has been improved to damp vibration, reducing fatigue on longer rides, while truncated tube profiles minimise wind resistance to enhance efficiency.
The parts specification blends value with performance, with the 10-speed Shimano Tiagra offering crisp shifting and a wide gear range. Shimano Tiagra hydraulic disc brakes provide ultimate control whilst descending, even in wet weather, and hidden mudguard mounts allow you to ride all year round. The Cannondale wheelset features reliable thru-axle Formula hubs, and the in-house Cannondale cockpit is lightweight and ergonomic.
