Question Cannondale CAAD 4 - BB size

My bottom bracket is knackered and I need to order a new one. Can someone please advise me of the correct size. I think it is 68 x 113mm but I would like to be sure before I mail order it...

I will be changing from my s*** Coda chainset to a Shimano XT so it may be different axle length to the current BB.

One bike shop told me 68 x 110mm but doesn't seem to be a standard size.

Thanks for your help...

Cannondales use 68mm shells. You can measure it yourself. Just measure the length of the BB shell from tip to tip (not including the BB cups lip). The spindle length should be 113mm for splined or 110mm for square taper.
