Its aluminum with carbon seat stays, Hyperion model. So far, I have greased the bar/clamp area, cleats are tight, the click happens with 3 different pairs of shoes - its not that. I do get some rub from the chain ring/front derailer/sometimes - flex maybe? This only happens, again in a powerful climb. Not seeing any cracks anywhere! I did wonder about the headset maybe, thats a lot of weight right on the bars in the climbs? Not that I have to have a silent bike, but when put under hard climbs, I would rather focus on something other than the clicking - and wondering each time if its getting worse.
