my chainline is good, both 1/8th, its a condor 18t cog
my chain is slightly too tight, needs too stretch a little bit, i didnt think it would be the source of the problem though.
and yes it is lubed.

Yeah it'll be the tight chain that's doing it. Also, a chain, chainring and cog that have never been used together kinda need to 'mate' and bed into each other. Takes a few miles. Just ride the bike a fair bit and it should stop.
