M L Posted May 17, 2015 Posted May 17, 2015 Now this has been discussed before I think but it was a while back. Would like to know what is out there nowadays. Bought the F29 F5 (alloy) cannondale flash frameset. Stock it comes with a shimano deore crankset. How did they make this happen since I only bought the frameset, how can it be converted again to take a shimano XT crank? http://www.fahrrad-ro.de/images/bikes/cannondale/download/14CN-F29-5.jpg

M L Posted May 17, 2015 Author Posted May 17, 2015 So this is the adapter the frame use. Quite neat. Anyone with experience? BB30 cranks creak, maybe this does less so. http://www.competitivecyclist.com/wheels-mfg-bb30-adapter-for-shimano
Captain Fastbastard Mayhem Posted May 17, 2015 Posted May 17, 2015 Ah. I see it's a bb30 frame. Should just be able to buy a bb30 xt crank, and fit it with the bottom bracket provided with the crank. Edit: I see such a thing doesn't exist, so you'd either need the xt crank, adapter and a bb30 bottom bracket. Or you could of course just get an SRAM crank, which offers bb30 as a standard

Slanghoek Louis Posted May 24, 2015 Posted May 24, 2015 Hi , dont know if you already fix it but we did my wife 's Flash bb convertion and 1x10(42) at Manic cycles in Worcestor with great sucses. 18 months later and still very happy.
droo Posted May 25, 2015 Posted May 25, 2015 http://www.rushsports.co.za/products/bb30-to-outboard-bb?variant=984983775 At a shade over a grand it's not cheap, but threads into itself so won't creak, and the bearings are replaceable. Ping me if you want one and I can have it here by wednesday.

SurferChild Posted June 19, 2015 Posted June 19, 2015 I had my Cannondale (road bike) converted from a BB30 to a BSA with a sram insert. When I sold the bike I put the bb30 cranks back so I still have the sram conversion... will this work on a MTB?
carrera4s Posted March 8, 2018 Posted March 8, 2018 Hi, does anyone have experience with the "Wheels Manufacturing" adapter kit? https://wheelsmfg.com/bb-pf30-universal-adapter-for-24mm-spindle-cranks-shimano-fsa-etc.html We are looking to put a Shimano DA 7800 on a Cannondale Supersix Evo.
JA-Q001 Posted March 8, 2018 Posted March 8, 2018 https://tokencycling.co.za/shop/2558/ You wont be sorry, they last and work great.
Spinnekop Posted March 8, 2018 Posted March 8, 2018 If the DA crank is normal GXP 24mm that should do the trick yes.
