Cannondale Synapse 2 Road Bike
Road Reimagined
Versatile, comfortable, and built to keep rolling, the Synapse 2 is your go-anywhere companion for long days on varied road surfaces.
Cannondale Synapse 2 -- Alloy Endurance Road Bike with Carbon Fork and Shimano CUES U6000
The Synapse 2 puts a lightweight SmartForm C2 alloy frame to work with a full carbon fork, delivering a ride that is rapid, responsive, and smooth whether you are grinding out kilometres on open roads or navigating rougher tarmac. Shimano CUES U6000 2x10-speed shifting brings durable, wide-range gearing that handles varied terrain with ease, backed by CUES hydraulic disc brakes with RT64 rotors for powerful, controllable stopping. DT Swiss R470 DB wheels keep things light and proven, while Vittoria Zaffiro Pro 700x30c tyres with reflective strips give you confidence in low-light conditions. Hidden rack and fender mounts, a removable fender bridge, and SmartSense compatibility make the Synapse 2 a genuinely practical platform for long rides and everyday use. This is your ride-forever companion.
