Anyone know of a replacement chainset for the Fsa gossamer 10 speed compact, 50/34 bb30 chainset for the cannondale supersix.

    Any road BB30 chainset, such as a Rotor 3D+ would likely fit straight in. With these the BCD allows compact, mid-compact or standard chainrings on the same spider.

    Alternatively you could fit a converter BB such as thishttps://www.merlincycles.com/praxis-bb30-bottom-bracket-conversion-93683.html which converts the BB30 bearings to take a 24mm axle standard rather than a 30mm axle (your BB30 crankset axle diameter), so you could then fit any 24mm road crankset, such as a Shimano Hollowtech II.

    I replaced the FSA Gossamer with PF30 BB on my old Boardman Pro Carbon with this.

    And one of these.

    It’s really very good. It also now allows me the choice of lots more Chainsets.

    It also works for BB30 standards.

    The Cannondale Spidering looks good and works well, albeit that you would need to get the rest of the Hollowgram chainset and hence would be more expensive. You might pick one up on ebay?

    If your existing spindle is OK and it's just the rings you need Praxis rings are good and not too expensive?
    FFS! Harden up and grow a pair :D
