Nothing wrong with the install ;)
There are a bunch of different theories as to why and when this can happen. In the past I’ve hammered ultra torque bearings through flooded lanes where they’ve been submerged for some pretty long stretches of road (I’m not exaggerating) and they’ve still not creaked. Any bearings I’ve had that have creaked I’ve often found were silenced by some deftly deployed dry lube dripped between the crank arm and the cup.

yeh grease in right places. Downstroke I guess when standing on the pedals it happens on point. Not so much / at all while in the saddle. Threaded bb. Yeh It seems to be installed correctly..
