Love them or hate them, electric bikes are here to stay, and Cannondale’s first go at a gravel-focused model was a huge success in our opinion. After spending some time on the Synapse NEO SE, we came away extremely impressed by the bike’s smooth acceleration, confidence-inspiring ride, and quality build. While the electric Synapse will only assist up to 20 miles per hour (similar to all class 1 e-bikes), this was enough of a grin-maker for even the most skeptical riders among us. You do pay a steep premium for the Bosch drive unit and 500Wh battery, but it’s a boon for daylong enjoyment on remote backroads.

As is the case with all e-bikes, the Cannondale’s battery and motor are very heavy (the Synapse NEO SE weighs in at a hefty 40+ pounds). If you plan to transport your e-bike with any regularity, it’s important to consider the weight limit of your rack and your ability to lift and load the bike. Another issue is power: if you run out of juice on the trail, it’ll be a slow and difficult ride back to your car. And finally, e-bike laws still are evolving and changing, so it’s important to know the rules before you head out. But none of these issues are specific to the Synapse, and if you’re set on an electric model that crosses over nicely between backcountry and road use, we think it’s a true standout.See the Cannondale Synapse NEO SE

 Give me all the comfort i need when doing three or four hour rides. I, like the fact you have a two piece, aero handlebar and stem i like the shape of the tops and the drops and the bar tape is really comfy as well especially running out. Gloves when it's warm enough, which is at the moment crazy climate change uh to thank for that and on this bike to use the smart sense and particularly the radar, you use your own computer, either garmin or wahoo, which most are compatible now with the garmin vario Radar, low models use a device on a handlebars that doesn't have a computer, gives you a simple readout of a car approaching so different levels of technology based on your experience, but most people buying a bike of this price range, probably have their own computer, their own Preference for a computer so at least they haven't, given you a computer as standard with a bike, but maybe they could, in the future, develop their own or partner with garmin or wahoo or another brand, to give you a built-in computer, but is that a move too Far, probably we have been there before our bike's, giving a smart capabilities of bikes. So at least you have your own computer to fit to the bike

 Okay time. To sum up all my thoughts and observations of riding the new bike for the last two weeks into one concise, succinct verdict for you to take away today, only it's not so easy and there is a tale of two halves on a plus side. I love the performance of a new frame, the handling, the comfort, the speed, much faster than the old bike, much more engaging, much more dynamic to ride, and we have some nice details like an external threaded bottom bracket, a regular seat, post and semi internal cable routing. So those are all a win, but on the downside we have a technology that you can't remove from the bike and that wouldn't be a problem if the technology worked extremely well and worked as good as aftermarket solution

 So this new bike has some big shoes to feel and has it filled them? Oh, yes, it has. Oh, my goodness me, this bike is just phenomenal. What a package it's even faster, even more exciting, even more dynamic to ride. Yes, it's still just as comfy as the old bike, with the same relaxed geometry gives you a higher position than a race bike and a really short footage and planted in high speed situations

Should you buy a 2022 Cannondale Synapse with integrated lights and radar?

 But it's one that we, the cyclist editorial team, all agreed that cannondale synapse has always managed to deliver expertly. So the last time this particular synapse was updated was back in 2017 and that was tall intended purposes. Just a disc brake makeover for its predecessor, because, ultimately, that bike, which was launched back in 2013, was arguably quite a way ahead of its competitors. In terms of the features it was already showcasing um some eight years ago i mean that bike already had a lot of integration of components

 So it could be in the knicker time too, because i'll be honest, whilst this synapse did run out as unanimous winner in our head-to-head best of the best competition for the endurance bike sector. You know the competition is growing ever stronger in this category. So what were those key details that stood out for us that enabled the synapse to just edge out its competitors? So something i think, cannondale has really done well with the design of the synapse, was the way in which it's interpreted the endurance sector, and i think what i mean by that is some of its competitors have maybe over egged that comfort element by having really tall Front ends very relaxed geometry, long, wheelbases and adding in those actual moving active suspension systems and so on, and what that can do if you're, not careful is always the danger of making your bike feel certainly heavier, but even a bit languid in its handling and responsiveness And ultimately, sort of robbing the bike of speed. And yet it's speed that most cyclists all measure themselves and compare themselves by whether that's giving a mate to kicking up the local climbs or getting a gold award in a grand, fondo or perhaps even just riding, to work faster

 I don't know, but here's that sweet spot, that we're looking for really well so there we have it. The cannondale synapse undeniably one of the most prevalent endurance, road bikes of the current era and one that we feel epitomizes this genre importantly not by following others, but by treading its own path and delivering what is expected of it in a clean and unfussy way. Quite simply, it gets the job done: [, Music, ].

Cannondale Synapse: Cyclist 'Best of the Best' Endurance Bike Winner, 2021

  My first bile with carbon frame and disc brakes.  Minimal compromise from a road race bike for smooth comfort and versatiility.

Endurance bile with very little compromise.

 Our video manager felix, who also wrote the synapse, has also never had an issue with more fittings and larger clearances. You wouldn't expect the new synapse to come close to the previous model's svelte lightweight design. So it's quite a remarkable achievement that this new synapse chassis is exactly the same weight as the 2018 model. The synapse also brings cannondale's proportional response construction to the range for the first time

Cannondale'S award-winning synapse is the definition of the modern endurance bike and innovation has always been at the core of the synapses design dna. Does the 2022 model follow on or could it be an innovation so far, [ Music ]? It would have been very easy for cannondale to ensure the synapses success by just using lessons learned from the brilliant supersix evo and the system 6 to produce their modernized synapse. It seems that wasn't on cannondale's agenda for the 2022 model, whereas previous incarnations in the synapse kept a more race-like bike design. With this new version, they've shifted far more to a real world, rider integrated lights and even a new cannondale specific version of garmin's underrated

 Changes are all about making the bike easy to live with it. For goes complex, internal routine, that's become commonplace on pretty much. Every modern road bike in favor of a simpler routine through a large port in the downtube they've, also moved away from the integrated seat. Clamp evolved in favor of a standard, alloy ring binder and slotted seat tube

 The new synapse rightfully keeps its place as one of the best endurance bikes around it's up there with the likes of specialized roubaix giants, dufy and cevallos caledonia. It'S handling meets what i love about great road bikes that compelling mix of sure footage stability and fast handling. The addition of the tech extras is the icing on the cake, but i'd still be smitten with the synapses charms. If it came sean of all these safety enriching extras, [, Music ]

2022 Cannondale Synapse Review | Most Practical Synapse Yet? Or More Unwanted Tech?

 Meanwhile was starting elementary school and at cannondale they just launched the synapse [ Music ]. It'S helped to shape what an endurance road bike is a bike for road riding, as opposed to being designed for professional racing. In essence, there's more comfort built into the bike. The handling is a little bit more refined and the riding position is for an actual human being, as opposed to a wannabe racing snake now over the years

 Hang on a minute, don't turn off. This is not just another aero bike, but we are all aware now. I think anyway, and just how important aerodynamics is to our efficiency, whether we're after increasing speed or increasing distance, and that's true, no matter what your baseline power value, but importantly, can they'll say that these aerodynamic tweaks haven't added any weight to the frame set compared to The previous version, which comes in a shade over 900 grams, and it hasn't also affected the compliance of the frame plate. In fact, the compliance has increased, cannondale, say and is now also size specific, so that the amount varies across the frame size spectrum to maintain those riding characteristics

So if there's no cars, it will show green and then, when cars start approaching, you will be able to see how many there are where they are in relation to you and also how fast they're going if they're coming up on you really fast, then the display Will turn red the system is designed to give you an awareness of what's going on behind you without turning your attention away from, what's going on in front of you and kandel said they initially started, trialing it following feedback from their customers that showed that significant proportion Of cannondale owners were already using garmin, varia tech, cannondales, say they've, designed the components to work together as seamlessly as possible. So cables are very neatly

 Welcome to Two Hub Cycling Boutique, I'm Anthony and today we're going to go over the brand new Look 795 Blade RS Disc version. Let's check it out. The Look 795 Blade RS is Look's first rendition of using disc brakes, but not only did they add the disc brakes, they completely re-engineered their aerodynamics to create a much more adjustable position that's easier to set up, has cleaner lines, and is a much better ride overall together. I had a chance to ride the original 795, I can tell you the Blade RS is a completely different bike

 Following down the stem, as you can see, there's external routing that follows the contour of the stem with the aerodynamic cover, and what this does is this allows easy adjustability going up and down, or swapping out a longer stem, and keeps the clean lines and aerodynamics for this bike. Moving down the stem, as you can see there's a seamless integration between the frame and fork that creates a very clean line, and then look at this massive down tube. What I notice is that this adds a lot to the power acceleration and really smoothens out the ride. For 2019, Lip did away with their integrated crankset, Z is dead baby, and moved on to a BB386 Evo bottom bracket to allow compatibility with any other crankset on the market

 The Look 795 Blade RS is Look's first rendition of using disc brakes, but not only did they add the disc brakes, they completely re-engineered their aerodynamics to create a much more adjustable position that's easier to set up, has cleaner lines, and is a much better ride overall together. I had a chance to ride the original 795, I can tell you the Blade RS is a completely different bike. There's improved handling, improved power transfer, and overall this bike is just competing for one of the best handling bikes out there in the world. One of our favorite features about this bike is the new integrated stem

 Starting at the front end of the stem, this stem will accommodate any 31.8 bar, so unlike other integrated bar stem combinations, this position is fully adjustable so you can use your favorite bar and you can get your optimal position that you'd like. Following down the stem, as you can see, there's external routing that follows the contour of the stem with the aerodynamic cover, and what this does is this allows easy adjustability going up and down, or swapping out a longer stem, and keeps the clean lines and aerodynamics for this bike. Moving down the stem, as you can see there's a seamless integration between the frame and fork that creates a very clean line, and then look at this massive down tube

The 795 BLADE RS cuts through the air, provides unmatched stiffness to weight ratio in the aero bikes category and it maintains traction where other bikes fail thanks to an innovative rear triangle design and large tire clearance. Rim brake and disc brake versions are available so that no matter which braking system the cyclist prefers there will be a 795 BLADE RS for him.

Look 795 Blade RS Review at twohubs.com - YouTube

 But of course it's still an aero frame and you still find the aero features on it that you would expect. So let's start from the front of the bike. And the fork in particular. The fork legs are bowed out for better airflow, less turbulence around the wheel, but they're not super slim, I guess that's for improved handling

 Of course it's not really used with the SRAM eTap that is present on this bike. This stem though is compatible with any standard diameter road handlebar, but what we have now is Luke ADH aerodynamic handlebar with the flattened top section. Although this bar itself is pretty neat because it has these wide spaces, so it allows to mount basically any standard computer. So no proprietary designs needed here either, also very convenient

 And the fork in particular. The fork legs are bowed out for better airflow, less turbulence around the wheel, but they're not super slim, I guess that's for improved handling. Same goes for the head tube which has an hourglass shape, but again nothing radically narrow. The brakes as I said are rim brakes, but they're standard, centrally mounted, not even direct mount brakes, so where is the source? Pretty common, although with a slight aerodynamic penalty

Look 795 Blade RS - the truly unique aero bike - YouTube

 It uses some of the features of the old bike but it's very very different in other aspects. So let's start again at the front end. This bike still uses a proprietary aerodynamic stem that integrates with the front end of the bike but this time it's not completely flush with the top tube because that's more or less horizontal but it still uses the clever space arrangement so you have more options in terms of stack height adjustment and also cable routing. This bike can take mechanical and electronic driving systems where the cables are routed on the sides of the stem down into the head tube and to the rest of the frame

 So it's fairly adjustable in terms of fit. The front of the bike, particularly the fork, as you can see is heavily sculpted for aerodynamics. The legs themselves have kind of a cam tail profile to them and the bottom part of the fork integrates neatly into the down tube where it also meets the wheel hogging profile on the underside of the down tube for improved aerodynamics. Interestingly Luke don't use the latest direct mount version of the Ultegra brakes on this frame set, it's still the standard centrally mounted caliper but the braking action is extremely good partly thanks to the improved brake track on these Mavic wheels which is at least in the dry pretty damn impressive

But of course you can get this frame now with flat mount disc brake calipers so that's an even more modern option and then I guess you get better aerodynamics as well because this head tube area is a lot cleaner. Down to the lower regions of the frame, on the down tube like on many bikes nowadays you've got the Di2 junction box port, of course with eTap you would have a blanking plate here, the cables are naturally routed internally, this one is for the rear brake because it's at the rear and if you go down the down tube you can see the massive bottom rack area but you can also see standard Ultegra cranks
