Technology
Wide Ranging Capabilities
With full clearance for tires up to a whopping 32mm wide, and subtle, hidden fender mounts, the Synapse is ready and willing to explore the wilder side of endurance riding.

Power Pyramid Seat Tube
The seat tube splits asymmetrically to meet the wide, 73mm BB30A for maximum stiffness with minimal weight.

Connected
An integrated wheel sensor delivers hyper accurate speed, route and distance info, registers your bike, reminds you of needed service and more, all through the free Cannondale App.

BallisTec Carbon
Cannondale's proprietary high-strength, high-stiffness carbon construction. An advanced matrix of intermediate modulus fibers creates a frame that's light, durable and lively.

Fender Up
Fully fender ready. A removable fender bridge on the rear stays is there when you need it, gone when you don't.
