Just joined the club! 2013 CAAD10 2
I've been following this thread for some time now and checking my local Craigslist regularly. We'll the stars aligned for me last weekend and my wife gave my the go ahead to buy. So far I'm loving it! It's definitely as smooth of a ride as everyone claims. Now time to get my engine in shape.
Regards,
SoulPro

Also, does anybody know whether or not this is possible.
Bike A came with disc brakes. Bike B came with Rim brakes. You take only the frame from Bike A and use all the components from Bike B. Or are disc braked bikes have a special designed frame.

@TS maybe you can help me with something. What are the difference between the two photos? Are the top the colors for the aluminium synapse while the middle are for the carbons? Or are some for the synapse 5 while the others are for synapse 6. To my understanding the frames of the synapse 6/5/4/3 are exactly the same exact in colorways.

Top ones are definitely carbon as well.

Wait so are we actually getting 6 different colors of the synapse?
Wow. Unless each color is reserved for Synapse 6/5/4/3.
Anybody have any idea whether the rim brake versions will be identical in color with their disc brake counterparts or are rim brake synapses being phased out.

I know for sure they only offer CAADX bikes for the next year with disc brakes, but I can't recall for sure what the consensus for the Synapse line is....

Notice the tabs at the end of the fork and in the rear triangle, which rim brake bikes do not have
I am not sure if the disc frames are drilled for rim brakes as well.....but as it stands now, frames an forks are designed for specific brakes and they are not interchangeable.
You can usually put a disc fork in a rim brake frame with no ill effects.....but remember the head tube was not designed for that much braking leverage so it may fubar something in the long run and cause you to need a new frame (stretching where the head set mounts in)
