Synergy Womens Road 88-speed Performance Road Bike List = The Synergy Road 8 is a performance road bike that uses internal gearing instead of external derailleurs to offer dramatically smoother, faster shifting as well as simplified maintenance. This women's specific version of the Synergy road bike puts a whole new spin on commuting, fitness riding, club rides and events rides. The Synergy Road 8 is the first drop bar road bike to use the Shimano Alfine internal hub - a hub reknown for its efficiency, durability and versatility. The Shimano Alfine hub takes all the external gear components and compresses them into a neatly selaed, compact rear hub. This dramatically simplifies the bikes look and operation - no more cranksets with multiple chainrings; no more rear cassettes; and no derailleurs. Just a single chainring front and rear - which means with the Synergy, the chain is always in proper tension and always in correct alignment for maximum efficiency and power transfer. Yet, this is only half the story. The Synergy shifting is also smoother and easier to shift than any other road bike on the market. Using the new Versa VRS-8 integrated road shifter, you can shift gears on the Synergy at any time - while pedaling, coasting, or even at a complete stop. Now that's smart. And convenient. Yet with all these advantages, the Synergy still offers almost the exact same gear range as traditional road bikes. So you can power up hills, fly down hills, and be the pace setter on your club rides. Think about it - how many gears do you really use? The Shimano hub eliminates all the redundant and overlapping gears of traditional road bikes and gives you the same range but in 8 evenly spaced gears. Ths Synergy also features a butted 7005 Aluminum frame, carbon fork and a compact road geometry for excellent ride quality. Weighing in at only 20 lbs, the Synergy is also the lightest weight internally geared road bike in the world.
