Hrm! Is the seatpost straight? I could imagine that if there is a small amount of play, it might rub against the interior frame near the crankset. It might be tough to see if it's straight, as maybe a 1mm difference might cause what you hear.

Let us know how your experiment goes.

Is the creaking sound coming from pedals or bottom bracket?
