No worries - it's been sitting in my parts bin since I sold my SSEvo HM 1.5y ago. Not gonna lie, any BB you put in there will add weight, but it's a tradeoff between shifting quality/matching groupset parts and weight: nothing will be as light as that Hollowgram setup except for something really exotic, like a THM.

I don't have intention to swap cranks at this moment. It looks as though those cranks will also take a 110 BCD spider and I have some of those rings kicking around.

I don't think that you can just change rings on it. I thought they had to be replaced with the SI Spider?

The Si is a fine crank, other than needing the proprietary tool to change the rings...
Thanks, that's just what they are!

It's a splined interface, so you can get a 110BCD spider to replace the OPI rings.

This is what I am referring to - will it not fit a Hollowgram crankset?

You got the best color scheme Cannondale ever made, in my purplicious opinion. If you ever decide to flip that sucker, please keep me in mind. I really disliked the ride of the current SS Evo, but would be keen to try a 2016 model, especially in colors that’d make me smile and give me a mood/energy every time I look down and while riding see em.

I concur! And that frame can easily take 30 mm tires. I think you're going to love the speed, agility, and flickability of the bike.

Looking forward tot he review.
BTW, keep the SI crankset.

I have to admit the cobalt blue was a selling point
My CAAD10 was just black and white, so inoffensive. Some of the white black and green Cannondales just don't hold appeal for me, and I do like to look at the bikes as well as ride 'em.

Seriously!? What the heck am I doing with myself I bought a caad13 rim brake hoping I could do that and my 30/32 tires hit the direct mount brakes where they mount.

Which year bikes cleared those bigger tires? Seriously I gotta know lol.

Are you sure about that? The frame stays might have clearance for 30mm tires, but what rim brake calipers will allow for a true 30mm tire to be installed? I thought most rim brake calipers generally max out at around 28mm...

they cleared 28 mm tires measuring 29.4 mm and still had 3 or 4 mm clearance, if I remeber correctly from my bike from years ago.
these were the 2016 to 2018 SS evo himod.
