Cannondale Synapse
CARBON APEX 1 SE
The Synapse Apex 1 SE is a workhorse that's light, stiff, and can handle tough miles in all conditions.
TRUE ENDURANCE MACHINERY
The full-day, full-gas performance of the all-new Synapse, outfitted for more. Big tires, wide rims and even wider gearing let you get after it on roads others fear to tread.
RACE-LEVEL PERFORMANCE
New frame weighs just 950g (over 220g lighter) with a level of stiffness normally reserved for World Tour sprinters’ rigs. This thing is fast.
CONNECTED COMFORT
The new SAVE PLUS micro-suspension in the frame and fork is complemented by the addition of the SAVE seatpost and new SAVE SystemBar, creating a full, holistic comfort and performance enhancing system that keeps you protected from shocks and vibration yet connected to the feel of the ride.
ENDURANCE RACE GEOMETRY
The rider position perfectly balances low, forward efficiency and upright comfort, for a “just-right” feel that encourages full-gas exploits and all-day sessions.
SIZE-OPTIMIZED DESIGN
Not only does every frame size get its own rider-appropriate carbon layup and tube dimensions, they also utilize three different fork steerer and headtube diameters with three different fork offsets to ensure that every rider enjoys the same ride-feel and handling, regardless of size.
