so I think I solved the creaking on my cannondale;
I think we were all playing with fire when ordering these. especially as I weigh 85kg. I am surprised it has lasted so long, 3 whole years. this would have happened in the past 3 months or so
onto the next one - https://www.aliexpress.com/item/NO-LOGO-Carbon-seatpost-27-2-31-6-MTB-bicycle-seat-post-tube-full-Carbon-fiber/32781099397.html?spm=a2g0s.8937420.0.0.6730c6deEjnWgQ
arrived in a week. real nice. seems to be very well made. the patterning is more subtle IRL. correct weight. 9/10 overall. would have been a 10 if the bolts werent a bit too long and silver
another - https://www.aliexpress.com/item/Carbon-seatpost-27-2-30-8-31-6-350-400mm-carbon-bicycle-parts-mtb-road-bicycle/32806995091.html?spm=a2g0s.9042311.0.0.ffVAns
again came within a week. overall not as nice a finish as the previous one, but not awful at all. there is however a strange mark/defect on one side which is a bit shit. have opened a dispute. weight is correct. 6/10 (will score higher if they replace it, which they always do)
