Synapse 2

Roll smooth, roll fast, roll confident. Wherever the road takes you, roll with Synapse – our most comfortable, all-around, up-for-anything, pure road machine.

Versatile performance meets refined comfort. The Synapse 2’s lightweight alloy frame keeps the ride rapid, responsive, and smooth, while Shimano’s new CUES U6000 road group offers durable, reliable shifting and braking. With proven DT Swiss 470 wheels and plenty of gear mounts, this is your go-anywhere, ride-forever companion.

What it's for: Enjoyable road riding with comfort, speed, and finesse

FEATURES:

• So Smooth: With Synapse Alloy, comfort is built in. Synapse Alloy’s frame tubes are shaped and butted with absolute precision to help absorb road chatter and bumps without adding weight or isolating you from the ride experience.
• So Comfortable: Synapse Alloy moves with both pace and grace. A comfortable riding position, planted handling, and the wonderful responsiveness of alloy under power, all create a bike that will help you feel in control and get more out of every ride.
• So Capable: Synapse’s comfort and confidence brings utility, too. Balanced geometry, plenty of gear/bottle mounts, and clearance for 32mm wide tires that bring cushion and grip, mean Synapse is ready to rock on any road.
• So Ready: Don’t sweat the small stuff. Synapse comes with a Contain top tube bag on some models. It’s easy to load and easy to reach while you’re riding. Bring snacks, tools, a map, or whatever else will help you go farther.
