Got all frame bearings done on my trek rail+ alloy frame . Not done a huge amount of miles on it. Shop said bearings were hard to get back into main pivot . Main pivot bolt was seized solid.
Since getting bike back its got a terrible creaking.
Went over everything from seat post, head set.
Cleaned re torqued motor bolts.
At a loss . Will need to take it back to rhe shop i think.

interesting, keep us updated - i have a small creak in the link somewhere.
Which pivot are you calling main? Lower or upper?

you tried the ABP ? Either the 2 bearings back there or possibly even where the chainstay and seatstay meet. I've had that once or twice on Treks too.
