  • Has anyone experienced a persistent creak from the BB30a? I've tried numerous things to stop my bb from creaking but to no avail. It's getting to the point where I'm thinking Of seeling my CAAD12

  • Bummer. Tried retaining compound? Assuming you have a version of the hollowgram crank have you checked the lock-ring?

  • Yep, sounds very familiar. I got a wheels mfg adaption kit and stuck some different cranks on. That was 15months ago and it's been all good since.

  • I have been struggling on/off for a few years now with bb30 creak (which is worse in hot weather). I don't want to jynx it but my bike has been creak free after fitting the bearings wth Loctite 641 (bearing retainer - not the blue stuff) and spiderring lockring with Loctite 243 (blue stuff)

    the 641 is designed for the bonding of cylindrical fitting parts.. supposedly. I bought both types from bearings r us. reasonably priced and fast shipping
