Check the tension on the drive side spokes. Tap them with the plastic handle of a screwdriver. The notes should be close. If one is flat(lower) then tighten that spoke. Sometimes if spokes are loose and rub where they cross they can develop a little groove that pings. You may be able to replicate this by standing beside the bike and mashing pretty hard on a pedal to flex the frame and wheel.
