Hey guys, i have a Cannondale SI crankset on my Synapse. If i am looking to get a power meter, do i have to gets a stages SI arm or will say an Ultegra be compatible?

Some of you might know , i was the fortunate hubber to have won this years TDF fantasy competition. 

I had a choice of taking the Green and Black Synapse with 105 groupset and Disc brakes or the Black and white with Rim brakes and Ultegra groupset. 

 

For ease of maintenance and cost effectiveness of wheelset upgrades i chose the latter option. 

So many months down the line and a few upgrades later, all thanks to the sale of my previous Aluminium Synapse pictured here below, 

 

Not as fancy as some of your but its my pride and joy

I can finally show off my baby. 

 

Chinese import 60mm Wheels. Chose white "no name brand" decals to tie in with the frames graphics as i won't use a "knock off" decal and plain black was just to bland for me. Also fitted a Stages Power meter.

Thanks Shaheed. Had first short ride this am. Frame feels great and group brand is # 1, irrespective of the model...

 

Hope to see your new build soon.????☺

Well done Mike. Love that colour. Definitely something different having Campy on a Dale.

I don't think that there are many of us at all...

This is my Cannondale build on it is a Habit 4 frame. Upgraded brakes, drivetrain, bars & seatpost, Only kept the frame and the wheels as I bought it. By the end of the week the rims would also have been upgraded to RaceFace ARC30's.

 

Never thought that I'd enjoy a "small wheel" 27.5 as much. Climbing is really amazing, and maintaining speed with a group of 29'ers is no real challenge either and handling through the twisty bits the bike just excels.
