Introducing the Cannondale Synapse 2, the bike that’s all about redefining your road riding experience. Designed to blend comfort with performance, this machine is perfect for riders who enjoy long days on the saddle, whether you're tackling rolling hills or cruising along smooth pavement. The lightweight SmartForm C2 Alloy frame, paired with a full carbon fork, ensures that you can roll fast and confidently, no matter the terrain.

One of the standout features of the Synapse 2 is its Shimano Tiagra 10-speed groupset. This setup provides smooth shifting and reliable performance, allowing you to seamlessly transition between gears, whether you're climbing steep inclines or sprinting on flat roads. Coupled with Shimano Tiagra hydraulic disc brakes, you'll enjoy superior stopping power and control. These brakes perform admirably in all weather conditions, ensuring you can descend with confidence and navigate tricky terrain with ease.

The DT Swiss R470 wheels are another excellent feature, designed for durability and performance. With a tubeless-ready configuration and a 28-hole design, these wheels ensure that you get a smooth roll while minimizing flats on your rides. Paired with 700x30c Vittoria tires, the Synapse 2 provides outstanding grip and comfort, catering to riders who want to explore even the roughest roads without compromising on ride quality.

Comfort is key for long-distance cyclists, and the Fizik Aliante Delta saddle is designed to keep you comfortable mile after mile. Its ergonomic shape provides support where you need it most, reducing the risk of discomfort on longer rides. Plus, the bike comes equipped with a convenient Contain top tube bag, offering easy access to your essentials while you ride—perfect for carrying snacks or small tools.

The Synapse 2 also includes several smart design features, such as internal cable routing for a sleek look and a hidden rack/fender mount for added versatility. Whether you prefer to ride without any extra gear or want the option to add a rack for commuting or touring, this bike has you covered. The removable fender bridge adds additional utility by accommodating fenders for those rainy days, keeping you dry while out on your adventures.

This unisex bike caters to a wide range of riders—from newcomers to more ambitious cyclists seeking a reliable and comfortable ride. With its blend of performance features and rider-friendly design, the Cannondale Synapse 2 is tailored for anyone who values a versatile road bike experience.

Riders rave about how the Synapse 2 strikes the perfect balance between comfort and handling, making it a go-to choice for weekend warriors and seasoned cyclists alike.
