Quite simply the hardest bike to get hold of during 2015. Once it won "Bike Of The Year" it became "the" bike to have. For 2016 it's had a new paint job but other than that it's the same awesome road bike

Pre-Launch

With Pre-Launch, the date when we expect to receive the product ourselves is still a little too hazy to be confident in accepting Pre-Orders.

So, instead, you can submit your email address against the item you are interested in and we will email you as soon as stock arrives on the system.

2016 Cannondale Synapse Ultegra Carbon Road Bike With Disc

Season:2017

Brand:Cannondale

Code:VARC12246MCRB

The perfect balance of race-day performance and all-day ridability. The Cannondale Synapse Ultegra Disc has everything any rider would want from a sportive / endurance bike. The frame is super comfy yet Cannondale have still kept it feeling responsive and agile. The Shimano Ultegra groupset offers silky smooth shifting whilst feeling and looking great. Mavic wheels means the bike rolls along just nice and if you need to stop then discs offer better than performance. Pound for pound this is one of the best bikes available

You may find plenty of talk regarding different geometry of road bikes with some suited to racing and others suited to endurance or sportive. 

In general there is one key difference and that is that the race bike will have a lower front end give more aerodynamic position where as the endurance bike will be higher offering a more comfortable position on the bike. 

Many manufactures have now taken their designs even further by producing frames not only based geometry to suits the different styles but also changing the make up of the frames to suit. For example the Scott Addict is a road race bike. This has a race geometry but also the frame is designed to be stiffer, lighter and extremely responsive. On the other side you have the Scott Solace which has an endurance geometry. This has also been designed to be light and responsive but it's also been designed so areas of the frame flex offering more comfort to the rider over long distances. 

The key when deciding which bike to choose is to first think about what you want from the bike. If comfort is paramount then choose an endurance bike. If speed is top of the list then choose a race bike.
