I've been looking for a new Sportive bike and done all the online research and groundwork. One that kept coming up tops was the Cannondale Synapse carbon, with disc brakes and Ultegra.
Cheapest I could get it for was an ex-demo at Evans (it had paint scratch and a chunk out of some metal, nothing major and a good price therefore).
When I took this info to START CYCLES (In Newcastle upon Tyne) they said they'd undercut Evans' price.
On the back of that they have from Monday past, just reduced ALL these Cannondales to £1700 BRAND NEW!!!!! This is the 'Sportive Bike of the Year' for 2014 folks!! so worth a gander (they have an online site too). So YES, I've bought one!!
Tell them PADDY (with the broken collar bone!!) recommended the offer to you (hey! I might get a free bag of jelly beans next time I'm in!! haha!). But after looking at CRC; Wiggle; Evans...etc, this was the best deal I could get.
PS: They also have the most beautiful Bianchi Instenso (only one) reduced by about £600!!! I was tempted as Italian styling just hits me in the heart! But it would need upgrading in some areas, so the Cannondale won (bang for buck & performance). GOOD LUCK!! - Paddy.
