Award-Winning Performance

Multiple independent reviews have praised the Synapse for its balance of speed, comfort and versatility. It has become the benchmark for endurance road bikes thanks to its confident handling, smooth ride feel and smart integration. “Synapse represents the new template for a non-racing road bike. It has handling that’s swift and stable, and gives confidence in spades. It’s compliant but doesn’t lose the excitement that comes from a stiff bike.” – BikeRadar “Cannondale have brought one of the most versatile bikes, and quite possibly the best all-road option, onto the market.” – Gran Fondo “The Synapse sets a new standard for endurance road bikes.” – Bicycling

Road Reimagined

The Synapse Carbon 2 is built for long rides, rough roads and real-world conditions. The carbon frame is tuned for comfort without losing the lively feel of a fast road bike. Aerodynamic tube shapes help save energy over long distances, while the stable endurance geometry keeps the bike predictable on wet winter roads and broken tarmac.

Ultegra Di2: Silent, Precise, Reliable

Shimano Ultegra Di2 delivers effortless electronic shifting with fast, accurate gear changes. The 12-speed range offers smooth progression for climbing, cruising and fast group riding. Di2 is quiet, dependable and ideal for riders who want a drivetrain that always feels in the right gear.

DT Swiss Carbon Wheels

The DT Swiss ERC 45 carbon wheelset adds speed and stability. Lightweight rims improve climbing and acceleration, while the wide profile enhances comfort and grip with modern high-volume tyres. Perfect for winter roads, long rides and fast weekend efforts.

Winter-Ready Tyre Clearance and Mudguards

Generous tyre clearance makes the Synapse Carbon 2 ideal for winter training. Fit wider tyres for more grip and comfort on cold, wet roads. Add full-length mudguards for cleaner, safer riding through the darker months. This versatility is what makes Synapse a true all-season bike.

Smart Integration

The StashPort storage system keeps essentials neatly tucked inside the downtube. Clean cable routing and integrated features give the bike a tidy, modern look. Everything is designed to make long rides easier and more enjoyable.

Who It’s For
