If you are lucky, it is your pedals or one of your pedals. This is pretty common.

If it is not your pedals, then a crack in the aluminum frame would be a good guess - especially if the creak is more than a short "tweet".

Aluminum has always been prone to breakage which is one of the reasons it's popularity has been minimal until recently; despite earlier experiments with aluminum frames in the 1930's.
