Cannondale Caad12 Bb30a

Adapt 24mm shimano fsa etc or 22 24mm sram truvativ gxp crankset to cannondale bb30a and pf30a frames.

Cannondale caad12 bb30a. Bottom bracket bb30a cannondale synapse and caad12. Originally on the synapse and slice the standards have now been rolled out across most of the road and mountain platforms. 42mm inner diameter 73mm width asymmetric. A on bb30a stands for assymetric which repsresents the split seat tube on synapse and the delta wider junction at the bb on newer evo and caad bikes.

I had a c bear bb30a ceramic bb installed on a synapse in 2016 and was superb. Cannondale bb30a pf30a adapters. I ve just got a new caad 12 and was pretty delighted with it for the first 5 miles until the bottom bracket started. The frame s bottom bracket shell itself is not threaded instead the bearings press directly into the frame.

Creaking bb30a bottom bracket not so great. Note this is not the same 73mm you could use on an mtb as one side of the bike fatter than the other. If so do i need to buy any further shims. Brand new bike hooray.

Since 2015 cannondale has released bb30a and pressfit30a or pf30a. I have dura ace 9000 groupset and dont want to buy cannondales own sisl cranks so the frame was supplied with 2 bottom bracket bearings do i just loctite 609 these into the bb shell. Bb30a is used on the synapse and caad12 frames. Bb30a frame shell inner diameter is 42mm has two bearing retaining clips and two 6806 sealed bearings pressed directly in the shell.

Hi i have just bought a new cannondale caad12 frameset and am sooo confused about the stupid bottom bracket.

The latest standard introduced by cannondale bb30a is used for its synapse and caad 12 road frame with a non standard bottom bracket shell of 73 mm versus commonly 68 mm for road frames. Cannondale is the company that invented the bb30 standard in the early.

My questions and confusiuon are born out of the following. Bb30a consists of a bb30 bottom bracket shell with 5mm width added on the non drive side. Before we get started there is a good chance your cannondale frame has a bb30 logo on the down tube. When using 24mm cranksets shimano fsa with a bb30a or pf30a frame use our bbright bb30a pf30a adapter for 24mm spindle cranks.
