Aye, I meant the lockring on the wheel- nine times out of ten it's that.
It does feel like the cranks are rocking slightly despite the chain being tight, leading you to suspect the crankset, but (in my experience) it's because I have not tightened my lockring sufficiently and the sprocket is unscrewing itself slightly when I resist the cranks.
