bottom bracket replacement on a killer-v cannondale? What size

[darin Ginther]

I've got a 96, Cannondale Killer-V MTB.
Crank bearnings are creaking quite a bit. I'd like to replace the
entire bottom bracket with a new sealed unit.. Anyone know the correct
size or where I could find out such information?

Pull off the old one. It should be written on the bracket itself. Order
same size via mail order or buy same size from LBS. Replace and keep riding
until you get a new one. Cannondale customer service may help too. Try
here: http://www.cannondale.com/

It depends on what crank you have. The Killer V takes standard English
threaded bottom brackets.
