Cannondale Brings Amazing Comfort to A Speedy Lightweight Endurance Frame

Alan from Finish Line brings you another great 2014 Bike: The Cannondale Synapse Carbon Hi-Mod

The Synapse is an endurance road bike, meaning it is a road bike that has extra comfort features built in for longer days in the saddle.

One of the new designs for 2014 is called the Power Pyramid. The seat tube is divided at the bottom into the bottom bracket area. Cannondale originally designed the BB30, and on this model they have used the BB30A, which is slightly wider. You will experience a lot more comfort as a result of this feature.

Moving to the rear triangle, they have included a system called Save Plus. This means that the seat stays and chain stays have been designed to dampen the road vibration which again translates into greater comfort in the saddle.

This bike is equipped with Shimano 105: ten gears in the back and a 50/34 compact crank. You will still get the same high and low as a triple chainring, but without some of the overlap that comes with it. Shimano 105 shifters use the full brake setup to shift into lower gears, and a smaller lever on the brake lever to shift into higher gears.

The cables are routed internally behind the tapered headtube which makes for a nice clean look. The bike is designed for comfort, but still has very high performance characteristics.
