From the cobbles of the European Spring Classics to the century
ride that's been marking X's on your calendar, the Cannondale
Synapse is a pinpoint balance of road vibration damping comfort
and optimal efficiency.

HEAD TUBE RISER PROMOTES AN UPRIGHT, COMFORTABLE POSITION
For 2008 the Synapse is equipped with a 2 cm
removable head tube riser. This allows the
rider to maintain a more upright, comfortable
position. Remove it and flip the stem and
you've got yourself a lightweight race bike.

S.A.V.E. = COMFORT
The chain stays of the Synapse have an
integrated micro suspension system to
reduce road vibration. We call it Synapse
Active Vibration Elimination.

WEIGHT: Don't see a weight listed for this bike? Wondering why that is? Well, we used to list our weights based upon medium or 56 cm frame and err on the side of caution when we know there will be variances due to welds, paint thicknesses, etc. But some of our competitors are weighing their small or extra small frames and rounding down. Then you're left wondering what's going on and making important buying decisions based upon faulty information. That's not right.
So because weight is too important to you as a consumer, we encourage a healthy bit of skepticism over published weights. Go to your local dealer, see it, feel it, weigh it and test ride it for yourself. We're that confident. You should be, too.
