Banshee Spitfire Clicking noise when pedaling

Any ideas what is causing this?
At least it’s not creaking…

Tried bouncing up and down on the seat when stationary? Mine turned out to be the CCDB Inline – away it went for warranty work.

Does it happen standing/seated/both?
Stem face plate too tight?
Reverb? I had creaking from the seat clamp on my Reverb.
Clutch mech?
Pedals tight in cranks and bearings/bushes OK?
BB bearings OK, cranks tight on axle?
Headset? Heard something about the Hope 1.5″ crown race causing clicking if at 12/6 o’clock.

So many threads on here about clicking bikes, so check the obvious before spending loads changing parts.

Could it be front mech cable catching on the crank arm.

When mine developed a creak when pedalling I went over the whole bike cleaning and greasing parts. Turned out to be the bloody seat post! And yes, it creaked standing or sitting, just not as much when standing but I only twigged that after doing the pedals, dropouts, chainrings, pivots…

No front mech so not that.
running a CCDBCS.
Did I read somewhere the begining of the suspension movement is funny/odd.? So could it be the clutched mech.

Hmmm.It never did it with an external reverb so it might be the stealth post…

It was the Rear ice tech rotor delaminating…
Strange noise tho.
Anyone got a 160mm for sale?
