Update on my CAAD woes, it's on its final warning and has a period of reprieve.
I've purchased a wheels SRAM adapter for £30. Unfortunately the new SRAM red cranks I had were 110 BCD so would only take smaller chainrings (none of the arguments could persuade me that it was a good thing to downsize the gearing on my race bike). I've purchased a new 53-39 SRAM Red chainset for £250 and can hopefully sell the compact rings for around half that so I'm not too much out of pocket.
If the frame behaves and doesn't creak for the next few months I'll keep it, if however it decides to do its usual thing I'll hit up my new cycle to work scheme (was planning to use this for a track bike) sell it on ebay and never, ever touch Cannondale again.
