My friend had his BB replaced on his CAADX twice due to creaking, turns out it was lack of headset compression.

Yeah QR and other bolts should be torqued to spec too.
Annoying how these noises manifest themselves around the B.B. area.

Interesting to know, I had the same issue for years on my caadx and was convinced it was the B.B./ crankset. Just stuck a whole new groupset on it though and had it serviced and all finally fine and quiet.... for now.

My Habit was sounding like a bag of spanners so I dutifully replaced all the stock pivot bearings - that have a terrible reputation for being shite and falling to bits - with Enduro Max.
Turned out it was the lock-ring on the Si crank loosening itself. Ho hum.
