As Pat from Pyga says... he loves designing bikes that’s fun to ride all day, or give it to a top of the crop racer and you have a podium winner at the same time.

In the end get yourself into something that will make you smile doing what you love.

Congrats Judd. A Synapse is such a sensible buy. When I bought mine over 10 years ago, I was told that the men's carbon version had been discontinued locally, as they were not selling, due to their relaxed geometry. The minute someone said, "It's not racing geometry", people walked away, because they wanted to "race". Other brand importers eventually saw the light and started bringing in comfortable bikes too.

 

Was one of the things that stood out for me on the bike (the geometry). I'm no where near a age group podium finisher, and with two prolapsed disks in my back, I thought it was a good choice.

 Are you going to take notes while you riding?

I have done a couple of rides with the Oval and I must say it is really great. It takes about a ride or 2 to get use to but after that its brilliant. on the down strokes I can feel its a 36T but on the over/under stroke it almost feels like you are spinning, if that makes sense.
