I was able to put half a turn on the Baconator's right crank nut to reach 25 ft-lb and a full turn on the left. No more creak. Remains to be seen long term if it got rounded. Really hope not. I really like this bike.

That would only have helped one of the several! You can see the next link is cracked, and an opposing one is cracked, and there's at least another that's separating on the other side. And I didn't do a link by link inspection to see how many more because why bother? Def time for a new one.
