If the ACE picture isnt fake, the "accessories" listed are odd. I would assume this meant, included accessories?
That's odd yes. They're features rather than accessories and pretty much table stakes for any computer now.

Does anyone know anything new about that unreleased Cannondale with which Lachlan Morton did the around Australia thing?
It seemed to be a more relaxed version of the super six but nothing new since then.

Ok... SuperX seems to be more of a gravel bike. I'll have to wait and see the geometry.

Would be great if bike manufacturers offered race and relaxed versions of their top end race bikes. Like Trek used to do with H1 and H2. With Endurance bikes being messed up and weighed down by suspension gimmicks, frame storage and even integrated lights in the case of Cannondale, there is room for this. Would be very interesting to see what the sales split would be between the two. Yeah it will never happen.

The UCI sticker said SuperX…

If it is a gravel bike, which the SuperX seems to be, it's not what I'm looking for.

Guy working at my local shop that sells Cannondales said the new Synapse will launch around May next year. It still has smartsense stuff but lights only (you can see the wire going from the rear light on Lachlan's bike, and I guess that means the sense bit is gone) and the battery for it is now integrated into a storage hatch in the downtube.

I don't want that. I'm out then.
Thanks for the info.

Morton rode around Australia on the new Synapse. The new SuperX was ridden at Unbound etc.

Oustanding co-ordination there - it's live on the German site but the UK one just has a 'something is coming'.

Not only that, the German page is terrible. A mix of English and German languages throughout. What a bunch of amateurs, between the leaks and this, one of the worst launches...
