| Jun 9, 2015 at 16:54 | comment | added | Ealhmund | Yeah, I took out the crankset and re-greased the whole thing (including the spindle), plus I also replaced the entire crankset/BB with a Shimano 105 one to no effect. I have not replaced the headset, but I cleaned and re-greased it without effect. I was thinking it might be the fork, since it's half-carbon/half-aluminum, but then wouldn't it creak more when I got out of the saddle (climbing/sprinting)? I have not swapped skewers, but I will definitely give that a try. Thanks for the suggestion! | |
