It says 103 on the taper, and you don't grease the taper? I get creaking sometimes if I don't and generally thought "grease everything" was a good rule to follow?
I'm learning there really is an art to working on bikes…
Before I posted this I re-greased the axle and hand tightened it down then lightly but with force torqued the axle nut until the sprocket arm had just enough clearance. Its on fairly good, but skeptical how tight it will be after a days ride…
