I was talking about 20mph and I don't have a cadence counter. When I took the inner bearings out to clean, I just put them back - they don't seem to be directional. The chain was on the bike when I got it 6 months ago. I don't know whether it's the right size or not, but since I didn't make any changes to my chain I'm assuming it is? Ok a week ago it was a faint clicking, now after my 38mi ride the clicking has become louder and I can hear random squeaks from the rear derailleur when I pedal.

I have a 105 RD, Tiagra Triple FD, FSA Vero Triple Crankset, KMC Z-99 chain, Shimano Tiagra Cassette, and Forte Titan rear wheel (silent hub).
My friend has a Sora FD and RD, Fuji Crankset, KMC HG-73 chain, Shimano HG-50 Cassette, and Alex DA-13 rear wheel.
