20 years ago, the original Synapse did something pretty special – it quietly reimagined the whole road riding experience. Reasoning that most riders were really looking for something other than the high-strung, second-shaving pro race bikes, or the mild and mellow “comfort” road bikes available at the time, Synapse blazed a new path. By melding race-level performance and weight with real rider-friendly comfort and handling, Synapse set the template and the tone for what would become known as the Endurance road bike category. Fast forward two decades and six generations of Synapse, and it’s still out front, setting the pace and helping define what the future of core, for-the-love-of-the-ride, road bikes will look like. Synapse is real performance, for the real world. 

Unreal performance for real world roads. Unless you’re a WorldTour pro, the Synapse is the perfect road bike for any job. Whether you’re tackling a record-breaking lap of Australia like Lachlan or smashing the not-so-social Sunday ride with your mates, the Synapse exceeds expectations. It blends WorldTour-level aerodynamics and stiffness-to weight with top-tier tire clearance, compliance, and smart features. 

FEATURES:

  • Real World Performance: Designed to go fast, built to go long, and made to keep you comfortable, the Synapse redefines road performance. With a sub-1000-gram lightweight carbon frame featuring wind-tunnel-sculpted tubing and PB-blasting stiffness-to-weight, it’s a bike that’s ready for anything you demand of it. Just ask Lachlan Morton why he trusted it for his record-smashing lap of Australia. Unreal speed, engineered for real-world roads.
  • 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. So that your bike works in harmony with you to deliver the best possible ride.
  • Bring it All, Bring it On: Our all-new StashPort downtube storage system is there when you need it and out of sight when you don’t. Designed to work seamlessly with its StashBag companion, it keeps your ride essentials secure no matter where the road takes you. Plus, with hidden top tube bag mounts, discreet fender mounts, and room for high-volume, capable tires, the new Synapse is built to go long and go hard, no matter what the day brings.
  • Ride Confident: Enjoy improved visibility, enhanced situational awareness, and unmatched convenience with the second generation of our SmartSense Gen 2 system. More discreet, more integrated, and more powerful than ever, this intelligent and connected system of lights, radar, sensors, and our Cannondale app brings easy peace of mind to every ride. All running from a single concealed battery, the rear-facing Garmin radar keeps you switched on to approaching traffic, while intelligent headlights and taillights adapt blink patterns and/or brightness to let other road users know you’re there. It will even power your SRAM AXS shifting. And with just one long-lasting battery to charge, it’s easier than ever to get out and ride with confidence.

Makes fantastic, not bitter, non-acidic coffee
This little carafe makes really great coffee for someone who likes a mild tasting non-bitter, non-acidic taste. This little carafe is well designed and easy to use. Filter is easy to clean once I realized that the bottom screws off for easy cleaning😉. I usually fill the filter with 4 tbs of ground coffee then attach to the carafe and fill with water. The carafe brews sitting out on the counter or in the fridge. I keep the cold brewed coffee in another jar in the refrigerator so the carafe is free to brew more insuring that I never run out of delicious coffee for my daily homemade iced coffee. I never buy expensive coffees out anymore. I don't even feel tempted to buy one out because the coffee I make at home now is far better than anything my local cafe's offer. Now I laugh at all the chumps in line at Starbucks waiting to pay $7 for overly strong, bitter coffee. Not today, Satan!

Awesome for Cold Brew Coffee and Tea!
I love this pitcher! I make Cold Brew Coffee to have Ice Coffee in the mornings. I just used it this last weekend to make Cold Brew Iced Tea.Both taste great!! It is a glass pitcher with a non-slip bottom. It came very well packaged, in a plastic bag that was wrapped in foam all the way around, and put into a cardboard box. The filter seems very good quality. I put the grounds in it and the add water to the pitcher. I stir once in the middle of brewing in the fridge (recommended in the instructions). When it's done, I keep the lid on and just twist to turn it just off to the side of the spout, and it pours out just fine. (Doing it this way is also stated in the instructions. Doing it this way will definitely keep grounds out of your drink with NO problem! ) I really like this pitcher. It is super easy to clean. And I Brew it starting late morning/ afternoon, letting it sit over night, so it's ready in the morning. I expect it to last years, given the quality! But if my kids or husband ever broke it (since it is glass), I wouldn't hesitate to buy another!! It is definitely a GREAT buy for the money!

Easy to use and clean, good quality, but..
I've used this a few times to make cold brew coffee at home and it works for that purpose. However I have found some downsides to doing it this way which I will discuss below. I like the base on this because it keeps the pitcher from sliding and protects the glass as well. The lid fits nicely and keeps the pitcher sealed. The mesh filter has worked so far for the course grinds required for cold brew and is very easy to empty and clean, especially with the removable bottom cap. However, going by the ratio as instructed by this product of grinds to water (and all that it can fit in the filter), it doesn't make a concentrate but an already diluted, ready to drink cold brew. Due to this, I'd prefer to have a larger capacity brewer so that my batch could last longer (as a concentrate would). You can still add some cream or ice or water if you'd like, but it isn't making a concentrate as if you were using a 1:4 or 1:6 ratio. However its slim design does make it convenient if you don't have much space to keep it in the fridge for as long as you'd like to be using it. The downside I've found to making cold brew this way aside from the size to make the amount I'd prefer at a time for concentrate is.. There is not an easy, convenient way to squeeze the rest of your cold brew out of the grinds that have soaked it up. I use a tea towel or cheese cloth to squeeze it out after dumping them from the filter, but it is a bit messy and time consuming and I feel I still don't get it all. For this reason I would prefer doing cold brew with a French press.

STELLAR Customer Service!
I only used mine about 10 times, and then the top somehow got stuck. I'm not that strong, so I don't know how it happened. Now I can't get it off and it renders it useless. There are no instructions that say whether it tightens to the right or left, so I don't know which way to direct my efforts. It seems to just get tighter no matter the direction I work it. UPDATE: The company immediately replied and offered to send me a new one, even though I bought it 2 years ago. This is excellent customer service! This brewer really makes life easier. Just don't screw the lid on too tight. It makes great cold brew, ready in the fridge when you want it. It cleans up so easily too!

love this!
So far I’m loving this cold brew kit in most every way. That said, I want to get the bad out of the way first: Even with careful attention to stirring the grounds my mesh filler was damaged within the first few brews. It’s just honestly disappointing because I love this kit to the fullest in every other way. It fits perfectly in my refrigerator door. The bumper at the bottom ring gives me peace of mind for protecting against the occasional bump. The filter, even with its weaknesses is well thought out. My brew is about how I like it after ~24+ hours of steeping. It has a convenient removable cap on the bottom to help remove used coffee grounds (your compost or worm bin will thank you!!!) The handle is comfortable and very convenient. I love the lid. It fits very very nice and snug and the design is very well thought out. Being able to pour my coffee without performing a juggling act is a relief. A simple turn of the lid and, “voila!” As a whole this cold brew maker is very attractive to use and store. It’s a mostly premium look and experience at what seems to be a competitive price at the time of my purchase. I will try to source glue to repair my filter and if that fails then look into a replacement from the company. EDIT: I was confident the company would reach out to me to make things right with an offer to replace my filter with their updated model. Have not heard back as of yet. Would certainly change my review back to 5* if they made this right. A product should not fail so soon - especially with the special care & attention I’d given it. EDIT2: Amanda and Justin were very quick to replace my filter once I found their email and messaged them my order number and explained my situation. 5 star product 5 star customer service.
