  1. Any side to side play in your cranks?

    Also, try greasing your seatpost and collar.

    Honestly, my first guess was your pedals too.

    Well, I’ve got the same noises when pedalling and found the source. The cassette seems similar to mine, yours may loose maybe.

    does this happen in every gear? after every crank revolution? if you take off one foot?

    No way to tell. I’ve chased creaks from the crank that ended up being the derailleur hangar. Back out screws of what you think it is and apply grease to the threads. See if it goes away. Move on to the next thing.

    For example: pedals, rear derailleur, derailleur hangar, chain rings if applicable. Once you rule out proper assembly then move on to component issues.

    It is possible on a square taper crank that the assembler tightened the crank to say 40nm cuz that is a standard number listed online but it needed 50nm to properly seat for example. But start with threads first.
