Cannondale Synapse 3 Disc Road Bike 2024
The Cannondale Synapse 3 Disc Road Bike brings together comfort, responsiveness and capability. The geometry is designed with longer distances in mind; it still feels sporty and lively but is a little more relaxed than some other models. Constructed from alloy, the frame tubes are shaped and butted to damp vibrations and smooth out rough roads with no compromise to ride feel or weight, and the pairing with a carbon fork ensures precise handling.
Shimano Sora components are reliable and shifting is smooth across the 9-speed cassette. Mechanical disc brakes work well in both wet and dry conditions. Strong wheels and Vittoria Zaffiro tyres make a bulletproof pairing, able to handle rougher roads with aplomb.
The frame incorporates a number of mounting points for mudguards and racks, and on days when the weather is looking less tempting, a trainer-compatible thru-axle with easy-to-install end caps will come in handy for simple turbo trainer mounting.
