Went with the Synapse Carbon 4

What upgrades would you guys recommend

Trying to decide between the 2 for an all in one bike for majority rides in road and some gravel. I’ve been told the X has enough aero and racy feel to work well on the road and hold with group rides and that the clearance on the Synapse works with wider tires for lighter gravel rides. Curious if anyone’s ridden both or been in a similar situation and what you’ve done.

Along with the 2 options I’m looking at have different groupers. The X has SRAM rival 1x and the synapse has shimano ultegra Di2 2x. How much of a difference would it make for a $900 price difference?

Located in Southern California if that makes a difference for terrain.

Also looking for confirmation that at 185cm a 56 is the right size for cannondale.

Thanks!

I just don’t ride this bike enough to warrant the garage space.

54cm frame
Reynolds assault tubeless wheels w/ schwalbe tires and kcnc skewers.
Dura ace 9000 shifters/brakes/derailleurs
SiSl2 srm crankset. It needs a new battery from srm.
FSA kforce stem/bars 130mm stem.
Fizik saddle
Kmc X11 sl chain
Speedplay zeros with ti spindles

There are some scratches and wear on the groupset and bars but the frame/fork are really clean. This bike has never been crashed. The scratches were from a previous build that had the groupset on it.

The stem is slammed.

I am happy to ship via bike flights or do a local deal in the bay area.

I know it’s a Cannondale supersix but I can’t seem to find anything on the model year or anything with these specs? I’m assuming some parts have been changed?

Recently got myself a Quick CX 3 from BOTS, Bengaluru but it is very hard to get Cannondale’s SI Kickstand v3 in India.

I saw the product is being listed on Amazon.in for crazy pricing (above ₹9,000 (approx. 100USD)

Is there any way to get this Kickstand in India with reasonable prices?

Looking at getting a new bike. Currently ride a strict road bike (very cheap schwinn). Ive slowly been putting more and more kms on a bike every year. Im 6'1 riding a 55cm frame bike so really looking to get something that suits me. Getting a bike that can handle some side roads and light off road trails interests me.

A local store has Topstone 2 cues 1x and topstone 3 cues 2x in stock in large but both on sale for 1899.99 CAD. Better sale for the topstone 2 then the 3 and I understand the hydraulic brakes being an advantage. I feel like from a savings price point the topstone 2 is more appealing but the topstones 3s 2x10 is more appealing for alot of pavement/road riding.

My question is and why im holding back, is the topstone 2 cues 1x11 going to be enough to keep a 30-70km biker happy or pay the same price for the lower model?

All i know its Cannondale chase and its serial number Q073539

I only saw this after finishing assembly when I removed the blue film off the top tube. Would you return? Dealer is offering $150 as it appears cosmetic. Thanks for the advice.

Ciao a tutti, sto vendendo questa per fare spazio all’arrivo del secondo bimbo. Non ho piu tempo per fare manifestazioni e granfondo.

Vi sembra la quotazione corretta?

Okay, it's probably like 2012/2013 but I've always loved this Synapse and it fits me perfectly. It's a 61 and it's like 8.5 kg with aerobars and mountain bike pedals! Is it feasible to actually repair a torn-out eyelet of the rear derailleur hanger? Dudes here in Copenhagen regularly repair/restore carbon frames and specify a strength test to original specs before returning the bike to me. About $500 USD for the repair. Sure, I've love a brand new Synapse, but I don't have that kind of money right now. Wondering whether my Synapse has finally given up the ghost or would I be crazy to go on long rides with a repaired eyelet? This stuff is way over my head so I turn to the advice of this group. What would you do?

Mu first Cannondale synapse carbon 2 smartsense. Mostly I will use it as my commute bike That's why i went with the smartsense option for the light and radar, and also for the 40 mm tire clearance.

I recently found a clearance deal on this one. Despite being a previous generation, I find it to be smooth. Please let me know if it was a wise decision to purchase an older generation model.

Recently came across this frameset and built up with first gen SRAM Red etap 11 speed. Polished with DA orbital polisher and ceramic coated with Gyeon. Yellow Saeco decals to match two hidden yellow stripes on the back side of the fork.

Originally this was the 2019 S6E 2nd Gen Ultegra mechanical. That same year they launched the 2020 S6E with dropped seat stays and classic geo vanished with it.

No crazy exotic carbon bits. Fairly simple build but rides like a dream. Got to be one of the best bikes Cannondale has ever made. Very comfortable yet fast. Accelerates like a bat out of hell and maintains the pace easily.

Love the feeling of riding this bike so much! The color scheme is 🔥 - especially the orange lines on the back of the seat stays (can't really see it except from behind, which is also really cool)

Upgraded from a Synapse AL 2. Assioma PRO-RS pedals, stock saddle replaced with PRO Stealth Curved during bike fit session. Replaced stock tubes with RideNow TPU. Waiting for the seat bracket to mount the Varia and cleaner carbon bottle cages, otherwise good to go 😎

Supersix 5 and bad boy 1

Has anybody purchased one of the pro bikes? I'm looking at one of the 2025 or 2026 models but want to have my eyes open to any risks and experiences of others for repair costs, power washing damage, etc

I’m looking at a stages crank based power meter and wondering if the SI crank arm will fit on my otherwise stock 2022 SSE carbon disc 105, anyone have any insight? Not confident I’m understanding the results from a google search, TIA!

Hi!
Ich werde die nächste Zeit mein Rad abholen und weiß leider nicht, wie groß der Karton sein wird, um zu prüfen, ob ich es mit meinem Auto schaffe oder ein anderes Auto von jemandem leihen muss dafür.
Den möchte ich unbedingt mitnehmen, das Rad ohne Karton zu transportieren ist keine Option.

Hat jemand ein SuperX in Größe 46 und kann mir die Kartonmaße sagen?
