Clicking noise from rear wheel?
First race of the new season and the bike started making this noise just as I crossed the finish line.
The clicking sound happens once every revolution of the rear wheel. It happens if I am pedaling or not. It happens in every gear but the faster I pedal the louder it is.
I looked everything over, nothing catching, nothing wobbling. Spokes are tight. With the wheel off the frame the free hub feels and looks good
Other than the rear pads dragging slightly (over serviced the fluid… doh!) and the tubeless slime being a little unbalanced, anyone see anything that stands out?
Thanks for the assist, I’m at a loss.

It sounds like your brake disc could be rubbing. Take the caliper off to test this.
If it is your brakes, it could be that your disc is bent at one point and needs to be pushed back or than you need to center the caliper to the disc and push the pistons back in.
It’s probably your rear caliper pads rubbing on the disc.
When it slows down it’s one full rotation you hear the ting noise.
You need to either loosen the caliper bolts and reset it or you have a bent disc from the rotor overheating, you can bend back?
