Hi
Had this problem on LeMond, Trek and Scott bikes in the past. The creak can be very loud and cause the customer grief. One triathalon bloke repaced his tri-bars, headset, pedals, cranks and bottom bracket before he came to us. He was well shocked when a bit of grease on the end of a screwdriver solved the problem!! The creak can transmit through the frame and appear to come from another component.
Alloy seatposts in carbon frames do the same thing until you rub a bit of candle on the seatpost.The creak shuts up as if by magic!!!
