Cannondale Synapse HM Frameset 2014

Cannondale Synapse HM Frameset 2014

With raw power and all day readability the Cannondale Synapse HM Frameset 2014 has got it nailed. Combining lightweight, race proven performance and dialed vertical compliance the Synapse has redefined "endurance" making it the perfect partner for the epic ride.

Synapse endurance race geometry blends pure race positioning and upright comfort. Making it the perfect companion for a long day in the saddle and confident handling on all road surfaces. This is achieved by a slightly slacker head tube, slightly longer wheelbase and slightly slacker head angle.

The Synapse is designed to collaborate seamlessly to reduce vibration, improve handling and increase comfort. The SAVE-PLUS micro suspension system, is a three part system comprised of the carbon lay-up in the rear triangle, fork, the seat post and seat tube.

Frame Features

• SAVE PLUS Micro-suspension system (Rear Triangle and Fork) The frame and fork's carbon layup is designed to optimise high-frequency vibration dissipation, reducing road buzz. The radical helixed shapes of the chain stays and seat stays work in conjunction with the offset dropout fork to allow the wheels to track over imperfections in the road for better handling and control, seated or standing.

• Micro-suspension system (Seat post and Seat tube) The elegantly scalloped seat tube and the smaller diameter 25.4mm seatpost are designed to flex together to provide more comfort when seated. The integrated collarless seat clamp allows more of the seatpost to flex than with a traditional clamp.

• Power Pyramid/BB30A The seat tube splits asymmetrically to meet a new wider 73mm BB30A bottom bracket, for maximum stiffness with minimal weight.
