If this bike (Felt F5) had a standard BB it'd be an easy decision to make. I'm digging the lower inner q factor given by the bb30! My other cranks have nearly rubbed the finish away on the base of the arm. It seems the adapters may negate any weight savings gained by the newer crank. Although, I suppose it's more about the shifting in that department than it is about the weight.
