I had a clicking that showed up under medium to heavy pedaling that I couldn’t track down and I found a lot of posts saying to check the seat post and the pedals. After going over everything with no avail, I had my chain off to strip and wax with Secret Chain wax (which btw is fucking AMAZING), and removed the derailleur hanger and put on assembly paste and torqued to spec. Clicks GONE. So I think the damn derailleur was just a little bit loose from the factory honestly and it was flexing slightly when under load and causing chain noise! Anyway just wanted to share in case anyone else has this issue! Picture of my freshly waxed chain and lovely clean cassette for fun.
