As for you, clean your chain, lube it and make sure your crank arm bolts and chainring bolts are tight. Also, check your saddle and maybe put a few drops of oil (or even chain lube) where your seatpost clamp makes contact with the rails.
Oh snap, I forgot to mention that my B17 creaks like hell when there is some pretty heavy load on it.
And yes the cable is in constant contact with the frame, since it's SS and has a rear cable. I think it might be touching the headset also.
