Cannondale Synapse Hi-Mod Ultegra Di2

A technically brilliant endurance road bike, the Cannondale Synapse Hi-Mod is not only visually stunningly it has the tech to match beneath its metallic champagne coat.

Who is it Designed For?

The rider seeking total comfort without compromising the edge, response, speed, and reactivity of a true performance-bred road bike. This bike is for those who demand power with no reluctance or lag.

Perhaps you're an experienced rider whose current carbon or aluminium road bike is outdated, lacking disc brakes, comfort, and electronic gears. Deep down, you know it’s time for an upgrade.

Riding Conditions

You might ride on rough, cracked, or coarse roads that often include dirt and gravel. Or, you could be looking for a premium commuter or touring bike, perfect for long rides and one of the best high-end endurance road bikes.

The Frame

Cannondale has a reputation for innovation, sometimes pushing boundaries with mixed results. The new Synapse aims to blend endurance comfort with racing DNA. It offers exceptional comfort and sharp response when pushing your limits.

The Hi-Mod version features a premium carbon fiber frame, weighing 950 grams, 220 grams lighter than its predecessor. The Synapse's handling is razor-sharp, with improved tracking and overall handling thanks to a redesign of the front fork and frame. Size-specific tuning ensures optimal performance across different frame sizes, complemented by Cannondale’s SAVE PLUS micro-suspension platform for a smoother ride.

Components

At its core, the Synapse features a Shimano Ultegra Di2 groupset with a broad gear ratio and an RX rear derailleur for stability on bumpy roads. The new aero bar reduces hand numbness, and its modular design allows for easy fit adjustments. GPS mounts are available, and the Hollowgram Knot 45 wheels are versatile, tubeless compatible, and ideal for climbing and rolling roads.
