and how can you tell?

The calfee is sporting Ultegra bits and pieces. During a random inspection I noticed the usual clickity-click sound seeming a bit off. Atrial Fib, hub style?

Also, while cleaning the chain, with the bike pinched in the stand, I'll spin the crank forward and aft wiping down the chain and while spinning the crank backwards I see there is sufficient friction at work helping the wheel to spin backwards.

Any thoughts?
