Also removed and lubed rear dropouts, pedals, rear qr, chainrings, cleats, etc.

Creaks standing or sitting. Gets worse as the ride goes on. Clipped in or not.

Any ideas ?
-Ride bike w/o cycling shoes-Still creak?
-swap pedals-Still creak?
-Swap rear wheel-Still creak?
-Swap front wheel-Still creak?
-OVH headset, check stem, handlebars for security-Still creak?
-Check CR bolts, 'faces' pf where CR hits crank spider
-Little lube on freehub body, TIGHT cogset
-OVH BB....

Change clothes? Yer knees??
