Hi Guys
Just a built up a cannodale Six 13 frame I bought on ebay.
It came with a large diameter BB30 canondale bottom bracket fitted so a bought a suitable pair of cranks and built it up.All good except the BB/cranks.
It seems to be impossible to get one of the cranks done up completely tight. Its ok if you keep pedaling forward and keep the pressure on but if you back pedal half a turn and stand on the cranks you can feel one of them give slightly.
Am I correct in thinking that there isnt much of a taper on these BB30 aspindle/axles and maybe someone cycled on it not done up tight and the hole or the spindle is now worn and the thing is scrap? Or is there some way of sorting this?
thanks in advance

Hiya
cant tell you much about stratalite I'm afraid.
But.......
My Dad is looking for a pair for an old bike he is building up. (you know the deal his mate had them when he was a boy and he always wanted a pair....lol)
Ring me up if you would part with them.......it would be cool to surprise him with something he actually wanted for a change. (I just missed his birthday...again)

You heard of anyone getting this kind of play when they are worn?
odd really ..with the old style taper you just tightened it up tigh and bingo...
seems like there isnt much o f a taper and not renough depth to tighten it any more......
ahhhhhhhh
maybe the botttom bracket spindle and the cranks dont match? maybe if I shaved a bit off the end of the spindle?
