Cannondale Synapse Alloy Disc
Hello,
I bought a 2016 Cannondale Synapse alloy frame (no fork) It's still has yet to ship, but I realized I forgot to check the tire clearance. If it's too small I might need to cancel the order. I also can't seem to find the information about tire clearance on Cannondale's site or least don't know where to look.

You could try googling it. My brief look at the results of "cannondale synapse 2016 tire clearance" indicate that it probably has clearance for 28s, maybe 30s, which is pretty damn normal for an endurance bike. After that calipers tend to be the problem.

My Synapse has tires that measure 27.5 with the micrometer and there's about a 1mm clearance. Of course it's older model so it might be different, but 30 is going to be the max. You can find the owners manual online and it maybe find maximum tire width there.

they came stock with 28's on some models, so somewhere around there will likely be it. might fit some 30's.
