Cannondale Bicycle Corp. - 2007 CAAD9

Thanks. I can't find the BB specs on the 2007 from your link. Was this the only year with a threaded BB?

BB30 was introduced to CAAD9 in 2010

Thank you. Exactly what I wanted to know. :thumb:

AFAIK, CAAD9 was sold with english threaded BB, except for team orders, which could request BB30 as a special option.

Did you mean a 126mm wheel? 130mm will handle 8,9 and 10.

I did of course. Duly editted.

The lower spec CAAD9's (CAAD9-6 I believe) had a threaded BB, but it was achieved by an aluminum sleeve pressed in at the factory. Those frames confusingly bore the BB30 decal on the bottom of the down tube. My 2010 CAAD9-4 and my son's 2010 CAAD9-5 are BB30. There was a thread here about a year ago by someone who had bought a used 2010 frame and it had the treaded sleeve.

My 2009 CAAD9 came with a traditional english threaded bottom bracket. Hope this helps.

^^ Exactly the source of my confusion. According to the helpful posts above, it seems to confirm the last true traditional English threaded BB was 2009.

Hi all,
Been admiring all the great bikes in this thread. Does anyone know what water bottle cage is on this bike? I have searched for a few days and came up empty. Hopefully someone can help me out. I saw this bike in one of the early posts in this thread.

Hello folks been awhile..


Got a 2014 caad10 3 and looking to swap out the fsa slk light standard crankset for a hollowgram but I wanna keep the 130bcd chainrings that I previously installed when I first got the bike. My question is the bb30 spindle that's on the drive side of the fsa crank, is it removable\interchangeable with hollowgram crank arms or would I have to purchase a hollowgram specific spindle?


I know I would also have to acquire a 130 bcd spider to complete installation:

Trying to cut down the cost on a crankset swap. Thanks

You will have to buy the spindle and crank arms plus the spider.

That's what I thought.. What size spindle? And total cost? Maybe it's cheaper just buying the whole set I'm thinking.

Anyone have experience using an ultegra 6800 crank w/ praxis adaptor? Besides weight difference any other disadvantages/ advantages using ultegra crankset?

I could be wrong, but they look like basic Chinese carbon cages to me. I use these off ebay and they work great, weigh 18g each.

I picked up several cages off of eBay too. They seem to work fine and they were inexpensive. I guess that's why I couldn't find them. Thanks for your help

Size? All the Cannondale spindles are 30mm. Do you mean length? 104mm. But you are looking at an expensive conversion. The cranks list for $350 - each. The spindle lists for $50. The spider, wave washers, a set of new BB30 bearings. Next thing you know you've spent $1,000. Don't get me wrong, I think the Cannondale SISL system is one of the best, particularly the SISL2 with the spider ring, but it is best to buy a bike equipped with it from the beginning.

I don't like the adaptors. Many of them creak.

There is nothing wrong with the FSA stuff IMHO.

Eh - sort of. I'm running a 5800 with Wheels Mfg. adaptor cups. Works great and shifts a touch better. But that's coming from a Gossamer. Not sure I'd trade out an FSA SLK.

I found a pair of SI crankarms for cheap, would I also need a spider lock ring?

A list of parts I would need besides the chainrings would be greatly appreciated, thanks.

I put a lot of miles on the crank and just feel it's time for an upgrade, I also had numerous chaindrops when shifting to the big ring no matter how much I tweaked the derailier and might I say I'm very much mechanically inclined no user error on my part. I know switching to a hollowgram crank will not solve this problem, perhaps switching to ultegra might help.

I suggest you study the manual in the link. It has an exploded parts diagram at the end and instructions that you will need for installation.

Exactly what I needed you are the man

Does anybody know the Torque NM for a CAAD 10 2015 Streerer ? On my Cannondale the stem says 6NM. I torque my carbon steerer at one point to 6.2 and thought that I might of cracked the steerer. So I adjusted it to 4.8NM. I heard some weird clicking noise and Torqued it back to around 6NM. Looking at the stem bolts the top bolt seems to be more closed than the bottom bolt as there is a slight small gap "both bolts torqued to 6NM". I believe this is a bit to tight and fear I might crack it in the future. I have OCD. Is there a limit of how much the steerer can be Torque before it cracks ?

I crashed my bike today into a pot hole and the bike handle bar landed first with the fork, I fear I might of messed it up. :mad::twitchy:

Recently joined the club, I have had the bike for about a month. It is a CAAD 10 - 5 54cm, everything is stock no changes just yet. 1st thing I would change are the tires, seat and eventually the wheels (not sure where to go with this) oh and I need stiffer shoes.

I was looking at a Trek Emonda S4, Specialized Allez Comp and Giant Defy 1 and Defy Advanced 3. I choose this as it was the best bike I rode when testing and at $1300 price tag it was a good deal. As you can see still dialing in the fit, my local bike shop has been very helpful when I need it, which was also part of the reason I went with the CAAD10.

FYI I love this bike and cannot seem to stop riding it just was to keep going and going and going. :D

I completely agree with you. This is a big let down for me too. I have quite short legs and the stand over height and seat tube height is too tall for my size (50). A 30.3" standover height for a size 50 is crazy. I have a 29.5-30 inseam..
Also I have a 67cm saddle height. If you look at the seat tube sizes, probably I'd have to push the seat post almost all the way down. And I'm just short, not extremely short.

I even stopped by a shop and measured the seat tube to make sure the geometry table is right. Sadly it is. I really don't know why they did this. The caad10 and supersix have the perfect geometry.

This is true, but in my case the seat tube height still went up with more than 1 inch. For short guys/gals that's enough to make the caad12 less appealing.

not sure if you've figured it out yet since i'm coming a bit late, but i believe it is a bird cage from portland design works https://www.ridepdw.com/goods/cargo/the-bird-cage
or something very similar.
the slits on the side don't match the version on the PDW website, but that might be simply an older version of the cage on the bike.
