Boardman Team Carbon vs Synapse 105 (2015)

    Quick one 410erinos.

    Paterscone is tempted to N+1 with a clearance deal on a Cannondale Synapse with basic wheels (RS010s) but nearly full 105 11spd (generic chainset).

    His current bike is a Boardman Team Carbon w 10spd tiagra (and a 105 RD) and upgraded to Zondas.

    Am I right in thinking there's not really enough difference to justify the Synapse at €1700?

    I don't know much about the frameset so maybe it's worlds apart but it doesn't seem like massive bang per buck.

    Don't know about the Boardman but I've got the Synapse 105. Its a very light and comfortable bike. I also have a Ridley Excalibur with an Ultegra set up and the Cannondale is much more comfy on a long ride. I have to say I don't see much difference between 105 /Ultegra.
