I won't speak for Scummer, but this is exactly as it presented on my bike. Every time the driveside pedal went down with high load, it would creak. It was creaking initially only when I was sitting, and then it got worse to the point where it was any time I put load on the pedal. I swapped cranks, swapped bottom brackets, swapped wheels, saddle, stem, everything and it didn't change.
