It's true that the bearings are smaller, but it certainly isn't creaky due to the plastic cups that surround the bearings. Incidentally neither of my Cannondales have a traditional BB30 and neither creak, but my friends CAAD X is one of the loudest bikes I've ever heard.

It's not creaky because it's not fucked yet.

Funnily enough Cannondale can manufacture frames to their own tolerances. Creaking from dale frames will always be from fucked bearings or a botched installation and nothing to do with machining tolerances

I think I probably could have worked that out myself. And the CAAD X has creaked since new, and had a new BB, so if they can't even be fitted properly by Cannondale who can you trust?
