Got my bike back. Correct size frame this time. I did measure the rear triangle on it and it is again a 148mm. So that's 2 from 2. My guess is Cannondale are building frames at 148 and jamming 142mm hubs in. Not the end of the world, but does make it a little harder to locate the hub and skewer...

Thanks. I appreciate it. My bike supposedly done. May get it back this week.

Thanks Weigle2. Appreciate it.

Any chance you could measure the rear hub on the Neo 5? Specs say 142x12, but the warranty frame that came measured 148x12. (Also came 1 size too big and got sent back) if 148x12 they need to sort out the rear wheel. Thanks.

Being in Australia means many things, but one is our e-bikes are limited to 25km/h assist (~ 15.5 km/h). I use this bike specifically for commuting ~ 30~ 39 km each way depending on the route I take. My average speed is over the assist level so I am non assisted for much / most of the ride. Have...

Larry. Any chance of a photo of the chain guard location? I'm in Australia and the LBS / Cannondale replaceing a cracked 2019 synapse neo (2x11) frame with a Topstone Neo. These are not available in Aus for me to look at. My real question. Is it capable of having a front deraileur? Topstone Neo...

I'm 105kg. I have cracked the rear rim (spoke holes) twice. I don't carry any load on the bike other than me.

Can anyone measure the seatpost wall thickness of one of these seatposts please? My commuter e-bike has a 25.4mm seatpost and I need to know the best size to go OVER a 25.4mm seatpost. Thanks in advance

Ah yes. Wrote that backwards. Purion reads ~ 2km/h fast at 25km/h. Corrected it. Thanks. I'm keeping the bike (electrically) unmodified at the moment. as 1) I want the ks in the legs, just the ebike taking the edge off of the hills, and 2) Someone on an illegal scooter is going to take someone...

Hi All. Adding my bits to these conversations / issues. I’m in Australia. Australia has the Euro 250W, 25km/h limits I have a 2019 Cannondale Synapse Neo 2 bought specifically for commuting ~ 38.5 km each way. Mainly shared trails and quiet roads. 301m climbing in, 413 climbing home. Love the...
