I have had this happen in the past and it always came down to the QR. When riding, I was sure the click came from the BB. I even stripped it down, cleaned and greased only to still have the noise. Cleaned and oiled the QR and all was well. Also make sure the dropouts and fort tips are really clean.

I should have also mentioned that when you remove the cups, if you can tell that the BB has never been properly faced, then that would be a good thing to do as it could easily be the cause of wear on the cup surfaces if they’re not perfectly aligned with each other. Proper facing will ensure they are.
Also, SR cups have had seals for some time. If you’re using them with the CULT bearings the seals are easily removeable, or left in, at your discretion. Plus they’re black. |

I had the same issue recently with a 2010 SR group. The cause in my case was a lack of grease in the BB cups.

Was the OP i would just take the cranks out, clean and repack with a lot of new lithium grease, reinstall, and test.

I swapped wheels, and i still have my popping sound. It almost sounds like its coming from the front end. I tightened the headset, it was pretty tight, still popping/clicking, rotationally, consistent. fork damage? ill try cleaning the dropouts. it happens whether i pedal or not, so pretty sure its not the bb or crankset.

My first noisy carbon bika
I've had intermittent clicking/clacking on my C60 since I installed a 2011 Chorus crankset. The clicking actually began as creaking which I was able to isolate to a chainring bolt. Then a week later the bike began to metronomically click during out of the saddle efforts, in every gear. Dead silent in the saddle. So went down the list: skewers (r45 hubs), headset, brake cables and seatpost. It wasn't until reading this thread that I considered bearings. The clicking resonated as previous loose integrated headsets. Short story long, I was ready to replace the 2011 cranks with the current 4-arm (why buy new bearings for a $100 used crankset). Then, yesterday, a moment of divine intervention, a gust of wind knocked over my bike. Hard enough to scuff the right shifter worse than on any of my high speed crashes. At some point on the ride home I realized the clicking was gone. Gracias a Dios!
But BUT It came back in the evening. Yet, I began to think the temporary silence was related to the impact. And then it finally dawned on me. The left crank arm had this zip tied to it: Four years ago, when I bought the cranks, the thing was so tight that I couldn't cut the tie without marring the cranks. Last night it was loose enough to move up and down half an inch. It never stops. |

I don't know if this is related to the noise, but it took some oomph to pull the non-drive side out, and when the crank came out the bearings dislodged from the crank arm and remained in the cup. Untitled by cgolvin, on Flickr Untitled by cgolvin, on Flickr Not sure what the best path forward is here. I have a new set of SR cups (not the green Record ones, got OP's post after I bought these) but I think I need to first remove the bearing from the cup and reattach it to the crank, no? Your collective wisdom and guidance appreciated. |

That's interesting. Yes, to proceed you should pull the bearing out of the cup and place it back on the crank arm. I wonder that you would be better off with new bearing(s) and your new cups. The thin seals can be popped out of the old cups and placed into the new ones.

My SR cranks always clicked when the crank bolt became slightly loose, and they would get loose quite often, which drove me crazy.
