2022 Cannondale Synapse Carbon 3 L Road Bike - Purple Haze

Season:2022

Brand:Cannondale

Code:C12302UPURHaze

The all-new Synapse with SmartSense - connect to the road like never before.

Roll smooth, roll fast, roll confident. Wherever the road takes you, roll with Synapse, Cannondale's most versatile, comfortable, all-around, up-for-anything, pure road machine.

It thrives on the open road, up and down hills, and on rough pavement, and is built for comfort, handling and going long.

  • Lightweight Synapse Carbon frameset
  • SmartSense system with front and rear lights
  • Shimano 105 11-speed group with hydraulic disc brakes
  • Cannondale C3 alloy bar, stem and seatpost

So Smooth

With Synapse, comfort is built in. Discreet flex zones in the rear triangle, seat tube and seatpost absorb road chatter and bumps without adding weight or isolating you from the ride experience.

So Fast

Lightweight carbon construction. Subtle aerodynamic shaping of the frame and fork. Size-specific design for perfectly tuned stiffness. It all adds up to a machine that loves to fly.

So Capable

With a comfortably balanced riding position, confidence-inspiring handling, room for 35mm wide tyres for cushion and grip, and plenty of gear/bottle mounts, Synapse is ready to rock on any road, anywhere.

So Brilliant

Ride assured, with increased visibility and enhanced awareness out on the road. Cannondale's SmartSense system of integrated lights and rear-facing radar makes it easy to ride smart.

Wide Ranging Capabilities

Clearance for 35mm tyres lets you venture beyong the perfectly paved with comfort and grip, or ride through the wet season with full mudguards.

Specially Smooth

Comfort and control you feel, not see. Everything you need for a bump-absorbing smooth ride is engineered into the frame shape and carbon layup, giving you a light, sleek ride that's unlike anything else.

Tuned for the Rider

Cannondale's Proportional Response size-specific construction creates optimal frame stiffness and compliance for each frame size, so that every rider experiences Synapse's glorious ride feel.

Mount Up

Mounts and eyelets galore means you can equip Synapse for whatever the day has in store, including full mudguard compatibility. Even rain can't keep Synapse down.

SmartSense Equipped

Cannondale's intelligent system of running lights is powered by a single power source for total convenience. More visibility. Less pre-ride fiddling. Easily upgraded with SmartSense radar for enhanced awareness.
