Synapse 2

Meet the Cannondale Synapse 2β€”the smooth, fast, confidence-boosting endurance road bike built for riders who want comfort without sacrificing performance.

Paired with Shimano’s new CUES U6000 2x10 drivetrain, you get ultra-reliable shifting, powerful hydraulic disc braking, and durability that keeps you riding farther with less fuss. DT Swiss R470 wheels and Vittoria 700x30c tires smooth out road chatter, while multiple gear mounts and 32mm tire clearance make the Synapse ready for big miles, new routes, and whatever the road throws your way. Whether you're cruising country roads or stacking endurance miles, the Synapse 2 offers the ideal blend of comfort, speed, and all-day capabilityβ€”your go-anywhere, ride-forever road machine.
