This is a bike of a customer so I‘m not sure I haven‘t received a bad feedback yet so it‘s a good sign I guess. On my synapse the creaks went away completely:)
@@sebibuchs Thank you for the reply. I have a 2023 SuperSix Evo CX and on my last ride I noticed a lot of creaking. I rode it to my LBS, who sold me the bike, and after failing to fix it with some grease he ordered new bearings for it. After some research, I’m not optimistic that will fix it. I’ll probably end up buying the threaded BB to replace mine since that seems to fix it. At least I know it’s fixable now.
You loose all the advantages of the BB30, why dont you change just the bearings? Now you have more weight, less power transfer and less heel clearance.
A common solution is to replace the bearings, and use a small amount of loctite on the outer race to seat them solidly. A lot of people find that gets rid of the creaking. But, if it doesn't work, a bearings sleeve like this could be a worthwhile last resort.
It will completely fix the creaks because the two parts are threaded together with the axle providing extra support inside the frame so theres nothing that can move around. But it eliminates all the advantages of bb30 and adds extra weight
@@jonienglish3231 the bb needs to be shimano compatible (24mm inner diameter) wheels manufacturing make bottom brackets for nearly every brand and standard
I agree, the most beautiful crankset
Great, so the solution is to get another crank, rings and a powermeter. Genious!
Has this completely fixed the creaks?

How many spacers did you use ?
I have a Cannondale Slate 73mm shell and BB30a, will Shimano XT Crankset fit ?

this is not a solution , its another option. It only apats 30bbs to 24mm, no you cant use the superior hollowgram. SHIMANO CRANKS SUCK!!!!
