Especially if your freehub body is aluminum, check to ensure there is not
galling upon it caused by the cassette.

Good luck, I have a Nitto S83 seat post so being a dual-bolt it was able to
become quite loose without any noticeable changes to riding position.

Great info here.I just notice some creaky creaks on my Platy while
riding last weekend. It's been too wet and chilly for me to get back out
and check it and it is waiting for me in my garage for diagnosis. I will
check all of the above. Thanks for all the advice.

I was chasing a creak on my Sam last year, it was driving me nuts, the
creak was on every cycle of the cranks, I pulled the crank arms, checked
the bottom bracket, greased and reinstalled the crank arms, swapped out the
pedals, still creaking. Greased the seatpost.
Actually replaced the bottom
As was advised and you may want to double-check, make sure there's grease
in the seattube. Of course it may just be a new Brooks breaking in (if you
have one), those saddles used to drive me crazy until I adopted the same
position as minor rattles in my car: "Yep, that happens."
On Tuesday,
Now that you mention it, yes, I've had pedals cause this sort of
elusive cadence-related creaking or, in my case, more of a clicking.
In this case it was a pair of ancient Dura Ace SPD pedals, and I
solved the problem by regreasing them (simply unscrewed body from
bearing core, filled bearing
or pedals if they're MKS ...had this happen to me twice

I know, it seems very unlikely, but I've found bars and seatposts to cause
this sort of creak after long and anguished searches, and much to my
surprise.

BB was installed by Rivendell and looks to be typical of their high quality
work.
You know I thought seatpost, then thought...nah...but actually that does
make sense. Hex head in hand now.

Victor may well be right in his diagnosis, but just in case, because I've
found them myself to cause elusive creaks that occured in time to pedaling
rhythm.
1. If the creak occurs while seated, try tightening or greasing the mating
interfaces of the seatpost in the frame and the seatpost cradle.
First; was the bottom bracket faced and chased prior to BB installation?
That's 98% + the most of the time culprit.
Secondly, its the old school method of doing, assuming the BB was faced and
chased, is the fixed side snugged in with blue loctite?
Get both of those criteria right, you should
Trying to diagnose a problem here, there's a creak when I apply a more
powerful stroke on the Platypus. It sounds like it's coming from the bottom
bracket area but of course, hard to tell when I'm riding. If I'm just
spinning along it doesn't appear.
So far I've checked the bottom bracket
