  • I have the same problem with my (identical) CAAD12, though I'm not convinced it's the bung. I frequently find there is a slight sticky-sounding creak at the handlebars. It used to go away when I tightened it all up but it came back routinely. Now I'm finding I'm tightening at the top cap as much as it'll reasonably go but it won't go away. I had the mechanic at Swift Cycles have a look at it and he put a more substantial bung in but the problem has come back. Currently weighing up whether to send the bike back to Cannondale for them to look at as I'm advised that this is the next step. Ballache! I read online somewhere of another guy with a similar problem with his CAAD12. Hmm.

  • weird, my caad12 does this exact same creaky thing periodically. I've even put new headset bearings in and it seems to have come back again although not as bad as before

  • Mine creaks also, taken apart and cleaned/regreased several but still the same....weird thing is it only really does it when you're off the seat and climbing moderate slopes, steep ones its only a faint creak?
