I love, love, love my Synapse hi-mod carbon bike. It's super comfortable on long rides and has more relaxed geometry than the supersix. The SuperSix is a sweet bike, but more for those who are performance-minded.

I test rode a few bikes before I rode the Synapse. I was luke warm about the others, except the Orbea, but knew the moment I pedaled the Synapse that that was the bike for me.
