Have an annoying intermittent creak on my BMC TM slr03! I’ve tried a bunch of stuff, but it always seems to return. Any ideas would be much appreciated!
Things I’ve tried:
Lubing and tightening seat and post
New BB
lubing the spokes
Cleaning and greasing headset bearings
Cleaning cassette
Cleaning jockey wheels

Often sounds like this come from the bottom bracket when pedaling. Probably have to remove the bottom bracket, clean it and reseat it (possibly with some kind of thread locker).
There are a few bottom bracket designs on the market which are notorious for being hard to get right, pray you don’t have one of those.
A less involved problem might just be the front chain rings which need tightening.
Check you pedals. I got same issue
