ballistec!
for bulletproof performance
BallisTec™ carbon construction combines super strong military armoring fibers with a network of ultra stiff carbon for frame that is lighter and stiffer than ever before. It's the game changing tactical advantage in the battle for the perfectly balanced bike.
BallisTec™ Technology:
Ballistic Strength
Ultra durable, high elongation fibers form an exceptionally strong base structure.
BallisTec™ Technology:
It's All Connected
An interconnected network of incredibly rigid high modulus fibers delivers perfectly tuned stiffness and ride feel.

Pyramid
YOUR BASE OF POWER
The seat tube splits asymmetrically at the bottom to accommodate a new, wider bottom bracket for serious stiffness without the added weight. The Power Pyramid is a solid base for laying down the power and laying out the competition.

SAVE PLUS The dynamic shape and flattened profiles of the fork, rear stays, seat tube and seatpost all work in harmony, providing the flex to give and the snap to go.

Road conditions can vary dramatically, but your performance never should. Whether seated or standing, the SAVE PLUS rear triangle and fork seamlessly collaborate to track deftly, even over the most challenging surfaces.

Directional carbon layup and complex tube profiles allow controlled vertical compliance while retaining torsional rigidity.

a little flex goes a long way
SAVE PLUS technology gets new emphasis in the seat tube. The elegantly scalloped shape, combined with a narrow 25.4mm diameter seatpost, provides more sympathy in the saddle—even over the most remorseless road.
The Top Of Your Game
The new, integrated, collarless clamp design allows more seatpost to extend above the top tube for additional comfort when the going gets rough.

the
epic
Our arsenal of tech is woven into a geometry that goes the distance on gravel and tarmac, over cobbles, and through chicanes.

S.E.R.G. is Synapse Endurance Race Geometry. Perfect your position.
Stable And Able
Longer chain stays mean a longer wheelbase for more deflection, compliance and the ability to fit wider wheels and tires.
Give Yourself A Lift
The stack-optimized head tube balances race bike aggression with endurance boosting position.
Steering Committee
A subtle change to head angle delivers equal parts stability and agility.

flight
Thunder over gravel roads and rail through rutted turns. With
SAVE PLUS and S.E.R.G., an uncompromising connection to
the road keeps you confident and in control throughout your ride.
But when the road goes up, the Synapse goes right up with it. Its feathery light BallisTec™ frame and POWER Pyramid give the Synapse the stiffness where it counts to get you over the top.
proof is in
the pedals
We can dream it, design it, engineer it, build it, test it, even ride the hell out of it ourselves, but none of it means anything until it's been tested by the Green Machine-Cannondale Pro Cycling. They're grand tour champions, green jersey winners, stage hunters, and just plain bike fanatics with impulses like: breaking away at kilometer 10, riding wheelies to the finish, or getting off the tarmac, just to feel the gravel under their tires. Only once the bike has been tested against the impulses of these guys at the highest level of the sport, do we put it in your hands.
Indulge your impulse, and experience the all-new Synapse for yourself.
FOR EVERY IMPULSE, THE ALL-NEW SYNAPSE.
