cannondale synapse 5 vs. specialized amira comp

[telebum]

I wanted to like the ruby, because I like the color. Yes... I am shallow like that. I did try the ruby apex. the shifter is not intuitive for me. I know it can be replaced, but I'd rather not replacing anything for a while. I want something with as few adjustment as possible out of the box. Also I feel like I did not turn as sharp? maybe it is just me. that store does not have the other rubies.
maybe i should go back and try the ruby again. It's been raining here everyday in the pm, it's been hard for me to test stuff out for a long time because I can only go after work. usually only have a couple of mins before it starts raining.

so what do you guys think? the synapse is out? I did not turn as well in that.
