The Synapse won multiple awards over many year and ticked all boxes on almost everybody&#8217;s list.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>&#8220;For us at Cycling 2000, over the last 10 years we have supplied more Cannondale Synapse than any other bike&#8221;<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Around 2021 the Synapse became a little dated and fell behind the pack in the race for the best endurance bike on the market. Cannondale tried to refresh and revive the model by adding &#8220;Smart Sense&#8221; a superb idea adding integrated front and rear lights and rear radar. The reality was that although Smart Sense was a great idea, the way it was executed was not 100% right and therefore probably had a negative effect on sales rather than the positive one we and Cannondale had hope for.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>SmartSense Gen 2 is a whole lot different!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The Brand New Cannondale Synapse Carbon<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Cannondale have had huge success with the latest SuperSix and even more recently with the brand new Topstone and the new Synapse uses many design aspects of both bikes such as the delta steerer and stashport, and in our opinion is superb and back to being the best endurance bike on the market.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9
