Cannondale Synapse Carbon 3 Compact Bike - 2013

Product Descriptions

REI Description: The sporting Cannondale Synapse Carbon 3 Compact road bike offers high-performance features like carbon construction and Shimano Ultegra components along with a comfort-oriented design. Synapse carbon BB30 frame features optimized tube shaping to promote efficiency and comfort; frame geometry gives a more upright position than more race-oriented road frames. The rear part of the frame and the all-carbon fork feature the Cannondale Synapse Active Vibration Elimination (S.A.V.E.) technology for damping road vibration. FSA SL-K Light Carbon BB30 compact crankset shaves weight while BB30 bottom bracket shell design increases stiffness for improved power transfer. Compact crank and 11-28 tooth cassette provide wide-ranging gearing options for easy spinning no matter the gradient. Shimano Ultegra levers and derailleurs supply precise, snappy shifts throughout the 20 gear combinations. Shimano Ultegra dual-pivot caliper brakes help save weight and maintain dependable braking performance. Mavic Aksium wheelset is decked out with fast Mavic Aksion tires for excellent handling and speed. Pedals not included.
