So Smooth
With Synapse, comfort is built in. Discreet flex zones in the rear triangle, seat tube and seatpost absorb road chatter and bumps without adding weight or isolating you from the ride experience.

Lightweight carbon construction. Subtle aerodynamic shaping of the frame and fork. Size-specific design for perfectly tuned stiffness. It all adds up to a machine that loves to fly.
So Capable
With a comfortably balanced riding position, confidence-inspiring handling, room for 35mm wide tires for cushion and grip, and plenty of gear/bottle mounts, Synapse is ready to rock on any road, anywhere.
So Brilliant
Ride assured, with increased visibility and enhance awareness out on the road. Our SmartSense system of intelligent lights (and optional rear-facing radar) makes it easy to ride smart.

Features
Specially Smooth
Comfort and control you feel, not see. Everything you need for a bump-absorbing smooth ride is engineered into the frame shape and carbon layup - giving you a light, sleek ride that's unlike anything else.
Tuned for the Rider
Our Proportional Response size-specific construction creates optimal frame stiffness and compliance for each frame size, so that every rider experiences Synapse's glorious ride feel.
Mount Up
Mounts and eyelets galore means you can equip Synapse for whatever the day has in store, including full fender compatibility. Even rain can't keep Synapse down.
SmartSense Equipped
Our intelligent system of running lights and rear-facing radar is fully integrated and powered by a single power source for total convenience. More visibility. Better awareness. Less pre-ride fiddling.
SAVE Bar
Comfortable, sleek and adjustable. This vibration-absorbing handlebar offers the integrated looks of a one-piece bar/stem, with the modular adjustability of a two-piece design.
HollowGram 45 SL KNØT Wheels
Light, fast and versatile carbon wheels. Extra-wide 45mm deep profile reduces drag, increases tire volume for comfort and grip, and maintains high aerodynamic efficiency even with big tires.
