    All bicycles sold at REI include a free warranty tune-up. New bikes go through a normal break-in period, after which readjustment is important for longevity and performance. Bring your new bike in to your local REI for its free tune-up within 20 hours of use or 6 months from purchase, whichever comes first. Contact your nearest REI bike shop to schedule this important service.

      Comments about Cannondale Synapse Alloy 5 Women's Bike - 2013:

      I love this bike! I have been riding for a few years now and have been on a Trek. As soon as I made my first pedal stroke during my test ride yesterday, I knew this was the bike for me. The folks as REI were amazing helping me get the bike set up and it was one of the best bike fitting services I have even had. Took "Dale" (yes, I named my bike, short for Cannondale :) ) for a ride this afternoon and it rides like a dream. So fast and so responsive. The bike fits like a glove and I cannot wait to go for another ride tomorrow! Good job, Cannondale.

      Comments about Cannondale Synapse Alloy 5 Women's Bike - 2013:

      This is a beautiful, lightweight bike, with awesome components. The shifters and derailleurs are smooth as butter. Very well built.
      The only problem I think were the brakes, which were not very easy to operate, especially while riding downhill - it might be because I'm new to curved handlebars though :P
