Overview

About this bike

The Cannondale Synapse Disc Ultegra is the ultimate machine for full-gas, full-day exploits. It's performance-focused, but with a slightly more upright position for comfort—perfect for long days in the saddle and confident handling on all road surfaces. The BallisTec carbon frame weighs in at a mere 950 grams, with a racy snap and sublime feel. An asymmetrically fork balances disc loads to deliver World Tour sprinter-level stiffness. Cannondale's SAVE frame technology tunes out harsh choppy road surfaces and tunes you in to what's happening at your tires, so you can concentrate on nailing the right line or beating the sun home. And with room for tires as big as 32mm, you can embrace the back roads, rough roads, highways and byways. You’ll be rolling on Mavic Aksium wheels, known for their smooth-spinning strength and minimal weight. And, with Shimano's smooth-shifting workhorse Ultegra drivetrain, you'll find the gear you need every time. This reliable transmission has the range to scale any climb; while Ultegra hydraulic disc brakes offer confidence-inspiring power and smooth modulation, so you can push your limits a little bit further. Cannondale's C3 aluminum components and a Selle Royal Seta S1 saddle round out this distinctly high-class machine.
