Finally, pics of the new pink bike :)
To disable ads, please log-in.
Okay... finally got my new tires today and put them on. Did not anticipate the difficulty level associated with putting on your own tires and I've already killed two tubes in the rear wheel trying to do it (it's currently flat, but I gave up for the night). But, here it is, for those of us who like pink bikes, finally finished!!
The specs are:
Cannondale Synapse (Full carbon) - 2008 53cm Women's frame
Shimano Ultegra
Shimano 105 pedals (the last thing left over from my old bike)
Mavic Ksyrium Elite Wheels
Selle Italia Diva Gel Saddle (that I got from TE! SO AWESOME.)
Vredestein Fortezza Duo Comp Tires
Zipp Carbon bars
Love, love, LOVE this bike.
Who else loves their bike and wants to share a photo (doesn't have to be pink)?!

I agree with Catrin--she looks fast. Very pretty.
At least I don't leave slime trails.

What a stunning bike! What type of riding do you do? She looks like a fast one.

Velocivixen - Mostly I ride the same route over and over again - about 30 miles on crappy highway feeder roads with chip seal asphalt - but as fast as I can. It's my way to destress and find zen.
Muirenn - I love it. So flashy!
Feral1 - nice bike!!
More pics everyone!!

I love how you matched the shades of pinky, very classy!
I have an '09 full carbon Synapse and I still LOVE it! I just put some carbon tubulars on her and she practically runs uphill

Oh ye Synapse Fans!
Here's "Lucille", 2008 Synapse Fem 1. (Bought her as a leftover in November 2008.) She's the bike love of my life!!! 15,000 miles together so far.

Purple is my signature color.
Her name is Marie Laveau.
I did used to have a pink mountain bike, I loved this one! Unfortunately she was lost in a car wreck.
She was named Holly Golightly
And here is my roadie and I after climbing a mountain pass in New Mexico. Her name is Miranda.
Her first night (she now has dark blue tape and Look Keo pedals but that is all).
