Single Speed Creaks?
- Check for a loose pedal
- Put anti-seized the QR
- Swap out to a steel faced QR like a Shimano XT which have a much higher clamping force with a harder interface. This is especially good if your drop outs are the harder titanium alloy
- Remove and clean the seat collar then grease/anti-seize
- Remove the pedals and apply grease
- Check for a seat post for a shim/insert
- Headset can creak
- Check the bottom headset cup, a little grease there and re-torque the headset
- The crown race can also creak against the fork
- Saddle rails/clamp interface
- Put Teflon tape on the EBB
- Check the handlebar to the stem interface and stem to steerer tube interface
- Check and clean if the frame has a removable derailleur hanger
