Cannondale Synapse Carbon 2 - Ex-Display
Overview
Now more comfortable, aerodynamic and sleekly integrated than ever, the new Synapse is more compliant, smoother riding and better equipped to take on any epic. It thrives on dropping your mates on the group ride, crushing an endurance race or exploring the globe.
Designed to go both fast and far, it is made from carbon tubing refined in the wind tunnel and boasts an exceptional stiffness to weight ratio. Changes to its layup have made this latest model 20% more compliant and even more comfortable over rough surfaces.
Hidden top tube bag mounts, discreet fender mounts and a new StashPort in the downtube, complete with StashBags, make it easy to keep your essentials close by. Generous tyre clearance, meanwhile, allows it to navigate a range of terrains.
Finally, this bike features proportional response construction, which means all riders, on any frame size, will enjoy the same great features. Perfect for riding long and hard, choose this bike for WorldTour performance on real roads.
Speed Shop Approved
Every used bike from Saddleback gets the full VIP treatment in our Speed Shop. Our skilled mechanics tear it down, check everything, replace what needs replacing and dial it in so it's ready to ride. You also get two years of warranty, because we stand by our products and work.
Ex-Display
These bikes haven’t seen a single ride – they’ve just been shown off in our showroom and at events. They might have the odd cosmetic mark (check the pics), but performance-wise, they’re dialled in and ready to roll. This bike is brand new and has been fitted with a new frame and fork, since the colour wasn’t standard.
Our Speed Shop bikes don’t hang around. If you see “the one,” don’t sleep on it as once they are gone, they’re gone.
Multipoint Inspection
We’re riders, so we know what matters when you’re in the saddle. Our Speed Shop mechanics have given your bike a full pro-level check to ensure it’s dialled in and ready to go. It’s been inspected for damage, with none having been identified, and the only work needed was the aforementioned frame and fork replacement. The wheelset has been checked for trueness and tension, while the bearings have been inspected and the tyres checked.
The mech and calliper alignment have been checked, while the gears have been indexed and the seat post has been fibre gripped so that it stays in place and every bolt is torqued to spec, ready to go.
