2021 SID Ultimate's purchased 08.2020 but only just fitted 75 miles on them.
At first thought it could be caliper/pads but have removed the pads and the noise is still present.
Would describe the noise as a slight clicking / light knocking noise. Seems to be getting more noticeable every ride. Is this going to be the much reported issue with the bushings in the SID.
Best way to test / reproduce the issue in a static test ?

Give them a lower leg service. My SID Select+'s did that from new but it went away after dropping the lowers and putting the proper amount of oil / grease in. They come really dry from the factory.

If no joy then yeah, could be the dreaded busing issue. SRAM will replace the lowers under warranty.

Thank you sounds like a good plan and go from there.
