    Strange clicking noise

    Hello,

    Can anyone help me identify a strange clicking noise. When I'm driving there is a strange clicking noise which sounds like something catching in the wheel, however when I break it stops.

    I have stripped my calipers down and there is nothing wrong with them and there is nothing cathing in the wheel.

    does anyone know what it could be ? if you could shed some light on the problem it would be much appreciated.

    many thanks and ride safe

    dunks

    I had a ticking noise , turned out the chain was tensioned too tight at the dealers. Adjusted chain as per recommended here , no more ticking.

    first thing i would check as its a easy fix,,

    Also check all of your spokes, odd loose ones can click.
