Sincerely all these new standards are a real PITA, who cares if bb30 BB is like 5% stiffer than regular threaded BB, after all like 99.9% of the cycling community sucks at the sport compared with the people who really is good at the sport and would use more of these new ideas.

Still dont understand why they are making stuff with more parts to fail, threads, cups and ready to go. In this case is, ok! what do i have here?? my crankset works with this? who knows? who makes the cups i need? it will work fine?? Oh campagnolo doesnt work with this! hmm... now i have a creak, have to loctite the cups again!, thats so saaadd... too many parts that can fail now. Nothing like regular BBs.

Leave that new stuff to pro racers, as i said before, like 99.9% of the population just doesnt need new standards and if cervelo continues like this, their whole bikes will use proprietary headsets, BBs and cranksets. Great!
