We now have both bikes and they have been serviced by our trusty local bike shop (thanks to Dave @ Cyclezone in Crowthorne).
Currently I've only had a brief (10 miles at 0 to -1 degree temperatures) check ride on mine plus a couple of turbo sessions. P has an additional road test under his belt and they are feeling good.
Mine - 2011 Cannondale Synapse 5 Carbon -105..
Sweet looking, light , nimble and comfortable (SAVE micro suspension)..really liking the direct response when I push the pedals harder.
P - 2008 Specialized S-Works Roubaix - DuraAce
Second hand find. Ridiculously light and nimble, and as close to a pro team race bike as we are gonna get (saying this, I know Liquigas have used the Synapse in Paris-Roubaix rather than their normal SuperSix). It really is a nice bike.
Hoping for a longer ride out this Sunday.
No doubt pics will follow at some point..
Oh. and my 2011 Ridley EOS is now up on Ebay...if anyone is interested in a good 58cm sportive/winter bike...have a look http://tinyurl.com/7lgls9m
Edit - the Ridley has now been sold - Edit
