cannondale supersix 2014 bottom bracket, BB30, creaking/clicking, what should I do?

[bbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbb]

Hello,

I've got this bike:
Cannondale Supersix Evo 2014
https://www.sigmasports.com/item/Cannondale/SuperSix-Evo-HM-Red-Racing-Edition-Road-Bike-2014/2PVY

bottom bracket: Cannondale Alloy PF30 BB Cups, FSA BB30 Bearings

Bought it on eBay some time ago, excellent condition, not used that much at all apparently. I've only done 3000 miles on it -- all dry miles, don't use in wet. Now, the bottom bracket is clicking/creaking quite a bit.

First, is using it while it's clicking/creaking making it worse, doing damage?

Second, what should I do, how to fix it?

Years ago, I had a Supersix Ultegra 2016 (which got stolen, not insured (( ). Then, I remember on whatever cycle forum I used to use, Cannondale BB30s clicking/creaking was quite an ongoing issue. I never had it on the one I've just mentioned. I seem to remember taking it apart and heavily greasing was the general advice.

So I'm looking to do this as cheaply as possible. And don't have any of the necessary tools yet (the specialist for this bracket ones, I have basic standard tools).

What does anyone advise? Thanks.

You can remove the bottom bracket with a mallet/hammer and a drift tool, then tap it back in, but a BB30 bottom bracket tool makes things easier. It doesn't need to be an expensive one.

This video shows a Cannondale BB30 being removed and installed with a cheap tool:

Right, thanks.
BB30 tool like this one would be fine I suppose?: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/186945980240
And I'd be doing that to put grease in?
And, is continuing to use the bike until I do that bad, causing any damage do you think?
Thanks very much.

and when it comes to replacing it, consider using a Token Ninja BB

below assumes you have a 24mm crank axle:

+1 to the Token Ninja bottom bracket. I've a couple of those and have been impressed.
