After my ride today, i had my wife (JoElla and Mike ) my brother help me pinpoint where the creaking noise is. It is the idler. ( I can put my hand on it a feel it creaking)I'm going to change it out to see if the noise goes away..

Can you replace the bearing in these? When I put one on the Strada, it was a lot smoother and quieter.
