The 2020 Cannondale Synapse Carbon Disc 105 Road bike in Black is light, stiff, fast & surprisingly comfortable. It is designed to handle the open road, gravel roads or competition. Above all this is a bike built around endurance, to give you speed & comfort on all-day rides. The Synapse Carbon is made using Cannondale’s own Ballistec carbon fibre which uses the same materials as armour plating. It also comes with Cannondale’s SAVE micro suspension which allows small amounts of movement in key parts of the frame to soak up bumps & vibrations. This doesn’t involve any moving parts, just clever engineering. The combination of lightweight carbon & SAVE micro-suspension means that you can go faster on rough roads. The Synapse Carbon Disc uses Cannondale endurance race geometry which places you in the ideal neutral position to ride harder for longer. It also has clearance for 32mm tyre, endurance race geometry, full mudguard & rack capability. The Synapse Carbon Disc 105 uses a 2x 11 speed Shimano 105 gearing & 105 hydraulic disc brakes for powerful & reliable stopping. Shimano 105 equipment is known for being the workhorse of the Shimano range. It’s super reliable, works well & lasts for ages. Exactly what you want on an endurance bike. This bike is perfect for Road cyclists who want a light carbon bike that can handle rough country lanes & even the odd bit of gravel. With the 105 gears & brakes this is a bike that will keep going for mile after mile.
