Radar The rear radar watches your back, alerting you to approaching vehicles so you can ride with ease. Battery Neatly integrated into the downtube, the battery powers lights, radar, and shifting, providing up to 24 hours in flashing mode or over 12 hours in steady mode.

Compliant Comfort With advancements in our carbon layup our engineers have made the new Synapse 20% more compliant than its already butter-smooth predecessor ensuring you feel 100% more comfortable even on the roughest roads. Like A Glove A great fit and feel makes for a great ride.

And with our Proportional Response Construction every rider gets that as standard. From the carbon layup through to the geometry everything on Synapse has been tuned and tested by frame size.
