Cannondale Synapse Carbon Dura-Ace Disc Road Bike 2020

Cannondale Synapse Carbon Dura-Ace Disc Road Bike 2020

The carbon Cannondale Synapse sets the standard for endurance road bikes and when paired here with the top line Shimano Dura-Ace mechanical groupset makes for a formidable performance machine that delivers comfort over almost any terrain. The SAVE Micro-Suspension elements used specifically in the frame and fork soak up imperfections in the road so fewer vibrations reach your body, reducing fatigue and enabling you to ride harder for longer. The frame even has space to accommodate a plush 32mm tyre for even more cushioning on rough roads or occasional gravel adventures.

The lightweight frame weighs just 950 grams and thanks to an asymmetric design with a refined carbon layup and tube shapes, stiffness and responsiveness are also enhanced, so that there's an underlying raciness in spite of the endurance detailing. It's also size-optimised across the range so that regardless of your sizing needs every rider experiences the same confident handling and feedback from the road.

Furnished with the Shimano Dura-Ace mechanical groupset that uses an 11-30t cassette and compact 50/34T crankset there are plenty of gears whatever your parcours. The finishing kit features HollowGram carbon handlebars and a uni-directional carbon seatpost to further dampen vibrations and save weight.
