Ask Lachlan Morton why he trusted it to circle Australia breaking records. Unreal speed, designed for real-world roads.

- Ride with Confidence:

More visibility, awareness, and integration with our next-generation SmartSense system. All powered by a single hidden battery. Intelligent lights adapt so other road users know you are there, while the rear Garmin radar keeps you alert to approaching traffic. Ride a bike ready for anything, day or night.

- Excellent Comfort:

Thanks to advances in carbon layup, our engineers made the new Synapse 18% more compliant than its already-smooth predecessor, giving you 100% more comfort even on the harshest roads.

- Like a Glove:

Great fit and feel make the ride fantastic. With our Proportional Response construction, all riders get it standard. From carbon layup to geometry, everything on the Synapse is tuned and tested by frame size so your bike works in harmony with you and gives the best ride possible for your height.

- Carry it All:

The new diagonal tube StashPort is there when you need it and out of sight when you don’t. Together with the StashBag, you can carry your essentials knowing they are protected. Meanwhile, best-in-class tire clearance lets you ride all day with unknown comfort and grip.

- Lights:

The headlight is small but powerful, transforming night into day with up to 800 lumens. A daytime position function keeps you safe, while its stem-mounted design provides a clean cockpit aesthetic.

- Radar:

The rear radar monitors approaching vehicles so you can ride safely.

- Battery:

Integrated into the down tube, the battery powers lights, radar, and shifting, providing up to 24 hours in flashing mode or more than 12 hours in constant mode.

*SMARTSENSE SMARTER*

The second generation of our intelligent light and radar system is smaller, brighter, longer-lasting, and better integrated than ever. A single battery, carefully hidden in the down tube, powers the lights, rear radar, and SRAM AXS shifting.

*LONG-RANGE TIRES*

Best-in-class tire clearance for tires up to 48 mm front and 42 mm rear, with at least 4 mm extra clearance each side, making the Synapse a true long-distance road bike.

*STASHPORT + STASHBAG*

StashPort is our version of a downtube storage system accessed under the bottle cage. Each Synapse includes a StashBag designed for tools and travel essentials. It also houses the SmartSense battery, which provides glovebox-style illumination when the StashPort lid is opened.

*D-SHAPED SEATPOST*

The Synapse D-shaped seatpost improves aerodynamics and vertical compliance, reducing muscle fatigue for longer rides.

*FLY WITH DELTA*

Cannondale’s exclusive V-shaped Delta tube provides a clean cockpit with internally routed cables. The narrow head tube front adds aerodynamic benefits and a sleeker, more elegant design.

*WHEEL SENSOR*

The Cannondale wheel sensor reports speed, distance, and more route data with extraordinary accuracy, while sending tune-up reminders, all via the Cannondale app.
