Can a chain creak? My bike started creaking with each pedal stroke a couple of weeks ago. Since then, for various reasons I have changed the frame, BB and pedals so the only constant in the drivetrain is the Whipperman 1/8 chain, the crankset (campagnolo pista) and the rear wheel inc sprocket. I've tightened the crank bolts and cleaned and re-lubed the chain. Yet the creak remains, mainly under heavy load, with each pedal stroke left and right.
