Anyone here NOT run into bb30 issues? Is it innevitable or just some poor unlucky saps that get stuck with a faulty bottom bracket?
Multiple trips to multiple LBS to resolve a creaky BB30 crank. Finally broke down and swapped out the factory FSA cranks for a Shimano 105 and C-Bear adapter. No problems since.

I do find it a little annoying when people blame bad maintenance, such as powerwashers and rain and dirt. My bike is meticulous and I when it does get dirty it gets a shower in the bath tub (aptmt living).
