Hi everyone.. I need some help while choosing between 3 bikes.
Cannondale six carbon 6 ($1600 in a local dealer shop)
Cannondale Synapse Carbon 6 triple ($1900)
Trek 2.3 Triple ($1900)
You could always gimme other suggestions in my price range (<$2200)
Is the synapse and all-carbon frame? If those, this is a plus over the otuher two, although the components on the trek are definitely better. That is your trade-off and only you can decide what is more important to you. It will depend on the type of riding you do (recreational club ride, racing, etc) and what you think you are most likely to want to upgrade first, frame or components. You can get the synapse, and in a couple years upgrade the components. Or you could get the trek and in a couple years get a new frame and swap in the components from the trek. If it were me, I'd get the frame I like the best and either make due with the components or upgrade now or in the future.
