I know this is old and no one is looking, but I FIXED IT FOR REAL THIS TIME.... just in case someone else gets this, my crank arm and chain ring are one, flanged or something, but, I had actually worked it loose from going back and forth and running a 52/15 set up and that is what made the creaking noise, as with the handle bars and the seat... apparently running 91 plus gear inch from a dead stop up a hill is bad for those types of cranks... meh, sorted with 5 pound crank arm and 5 pound 50T chain ring.. if anyone has a 51 or 52 with a 110 bcd, I would be much appreciative. AND on a side note, if I am going to keep the 50/15 do I need a half link?
