Mine does, and so does a riding mate's.

Lovely comfy saddle, but do they all make a horrible noise?

A little on my HT. Try using some friction paste on the rails.

Both my spoons creak like mad, I was thinking of changing to a scoop to cure this, good job they're so comfy!

A bit, it's drowned out by the cacophony coming from the rest of the bike at the moment.

Yep sure does got one on all four of my bikes, creak tends to come from the back where rails engage with plastic shell. Turn my bikes upside down and blast with Gt85 tends to do the trick for a while.

Mine creaks really bad as well. Very Annoying as the bike is otherwise deadly silent!

Mine has been driving me mad but read that putting copper grease on the rails sorts it out. So far so good. Couple of weeks of silence so far

Two here, both creak, but mostly drowned out by my wheezing...

Funnily enough. Good timing. My spoon has been fine for 3 years but started creaking about half an hour ago on last climb home. Copper grease in the morning then !

I've got one Spoon and two knives. One of the knives creaks like crazy but the other 2 are fine. Seems to be where the rails attach to the nose.

A bit of grease as the rails enter the plastic shell sorted mine out. Silent since.

Charge spoon creaks like an old floorboard in your first girlfriend's parents' house. I might try the grease where the rails go into the nose trick as it is starting to get on my tits.
