Cannondale Synapse SM 105 Womens Road Bike 2016

Cannondale Synapse SM 105 Womens Road Bike 2016

Striking the perfect balance of performance and comfort, the Cannondale Synapse SM 105 Womens Road Bike 2016 is a superb all-round bike that is as capable of excelling on short tight circuits as it is on long endurance rides.

Superb shifting comes in the form of Shimano's much sought-after 105 5800 groupset. This generation-transending groupset is ultra-smooth and with the 11-32 rear cassette no hill should intimidate you.

Mavic's Aksium WTS wheelset coupled with Schwalbe's Lugano 700x25c folding make up this bikes contact point with the road so you don't have to worry about grip and responsiveness.

This superb grouping of components coupled the endurance and comfort focused Women’s S.E.R.G. Geometry makes this the kind of bike you can several great hours on.

Features:

• Women’s S.E.R.G. Geometry: Cannondale's Women’s S.E.R.G (Synapse Endurance Race Geometry) is based on an even spread of stack and reach, ensuring consistent jumps between sizes, and features a taller head tube, slightly relaxed head angle and a longer wheelbase for the perfect balance of racy agility and stable comfort.

• SAVE PLUS Micro-Suspension (Rear Triangle and Fork): The frame’s carbon layup is designed to damp out road buzz, while the radical helixed shapes of the rear chain stays and seat stays work in conjuction with the sculpted front fork to absorb small and medium size bumps, allowing the wheels to track the road, keeping you comfortably in control.

• SAVE PLUS Micro-Suspension (Seatpost and Seat Tube): The seat post and seat tube work together to insulate the rider from bigger bumps when seated. The smaller 25.4mm diameter seatpost flexes more than larger diameter posts, aided by the internal wedge seatclamp design which allows more of the post to flex, and the seat tube is designed to bow under load as well, protecting the rider from impacts.

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

• Larger Tyres: The larger volume 700x25c tyres found on all Women’s Synapses provide more comfort and stability and are less likely to pinch flat. The frames can accept up to 28c tyres.

• Ballistec Carbon Construction: Extreme light weight. Perfectly tuned stiffness. Remarkable strength.

• SM = Standard Mod carbon for strength and responsiveness
