Its a shame though, I should have enjoyed that bike. That is when I got the very quiet Trek Emonda ALR, and found that bike far more enjoyable than the Synapse.
I had an Evo Super Six Red Racing and I hated it. People ask what I didn't like about it and all I could say is that it didn't fit me real well and it was a "hard" bike. Every contact point was hard, steering was hard and I could only ride it for an hour before I started hurting somewhere and sometimes everywhere. Then, I had the carbon Flash and although I didn't hate it, I didn't like it either. It was more of a , "meh". It's hard to get motivated to ride when you don't like your bicycles. I was on a team that was sponsored by Cannondale, so as long as I was on that team, I had to ride Cannondale. I know, first world problems. Whoa is me.
