You went through almost all the fittings the first time around. What's left are pedals, chain ring bolts. Take these apart/lube them. Not that they are deffenantly the problems but... Other areas of concern are- BB bearings as mentioned already, retorquing the LH arm on the spindle (and those pinch bolts lubing), the fit between the spindle and the bearing IDs. Of course the tick could be from other then the crank area also. these noises are sometimes hard to track down. And not always a bad thing happening. Sometimes a bike makes noise. BTW how are the rings, cogs and chain? Andy.
