Hi

Looking for some advice on changing the bottom bracket on my Cannondale Supersix Evo.

It creaks like mad at the moment. Gave it a good clean and ensured everything was tightened correctly, creak free for about 7 miles then started again.

I'm currently looking at "direct fit" bottom brackets I think they're called (the type sold by BB infinite) as apparently these solve common creaking problems and I would like to switch to a Shimano crank so I'm hoping to hit two birds with one stone.

Does anyone have any recommendations for the direct fit brackets other than BB infinite? Maybe on the cheaper side as well :D

Cheers

    I have fitted a Wheels Manufacturing BB to mine. Simple to fit, smooth and silent....
    FFS! Harden up and grow a pair :D

    Great thanks for that, did you change to one that would fit Shimano cranks?
