Hi I have a Rivendell Atlantis that I built up last year, it ticks when pedaling. Same place every-time near the top of the non drive stroke. There is nothing I can see touching or rubbing. It only ticks when pedaling not coasting. The ticking is not loud nor does seem to produce any drag. If I pedal lightly with out putting any pressure on the wheel it does not tick. It ticks when pedaling out of the saddle. The tick sometimes is a double tick, tick-tick. I first thought was the bottom bracket so I swapped out the Shimano 107 mm for a Phil wood 108 mm, without and difference in the ticking. It will tick no-matter what gear it is in. If I pedal with my right foot only attached, no ticking. If I pedal with my left foot only attached it ticks. The bike has only about 1,500 miles total. I can't honestly say when the tick started. I am going on a cycle camping tip on the 13th and want it fixed by then. The build with all new parts: 61cm Frame Sugino triple cranks 170 mm 46/36/24 Shimano Nexave front derailer Shimano Deore LX rapid rise rear derailer 8 speed casette 12—30 9 speed chain Friction DT shifters Shamino XT hubs, Velocity Synergy OC rear wheel Rivendell build. Shimano PDM324 pedals. Any suggestions?
