Thanks for the suggestion on saddle creak
I searched this forum for help with a newish saddle that started to creak. A few people recommended silicon spray lubricant. It works beautifully
Thanks for the help y'all!!!

Glad you fixed your issue. Creaking sounds are the worst IMO. They can make you go mad
I always put grease on metal to metal contacts (including my saddle rails) and carbon paste on carbon to carbon or metal to carbon contacts (between saddle post and seat tube). It helps.

Grease works better
The silicone lubricant seems to have worn out. Grease seems to do much better. Very small amount
