I am now beyond caring... well almost.

Going to give LBS one more chance to sort this, before I demand a replacement bike.

For anyone who cares (and I know I have probably irritated you as much as my LBS with this saga!!)

Any advice re: my consumer rights etc, as I think I am getting to that point now...

    Self diagnosis and tear down might invalidate your warranty so careful with that one unless you are confident in your own abilities as a mechanic (which i assume you are not).

    You've been through all the right channels and the bike is clearly not right.

    Despite what some of the other posts claim, I also have to have a 'silent bike', I've built 2 and run and maintain a family and friends fleet that goes into double figures...All of them run smooth, quiet and creak-free.

    Money back or replacement is your goal....Time to get Medieval on the LBS!!

    Good luck!

    Demand a replacement, because of a few creaks? You really are way over the top. If a few small noises bother you to the point you kick up so much about them both in the LBS and internet forums, and are about to "Demand a replacement bike". It's a noise for god sake.

    I think this is my favourite post of the week. There should be a smiley for that.
