SRAM RED clicking sound
This is a known SRAM issue at the shop I frequent. The clicking typically happens under load, and more so at the "cross over point" between big/small ring. At least 5 bikes had the issue, including one of the shop's employees. All different frames and setups, but with Red 22. Everything was tried at SRAM's suggestion, including different cassettes, bottom brackets, etc. Finally, one of the mechanics found what solves the problems- A shimano 11 chain! For whatever reason, the Red 22 chain twists from torque ever so slightly causing the click. They are dealing with SRAM right now about the issue and seeing if there is some more general resolution or a manufacturing issue.

When I tap the lever for a taller or shorter gear a clicking sound is always heard.

I've had clicking before. Tighten the lockring fixed it. Most need 35-50nm of torque (it will say on the lockring). 40nm is a lot from feel in my opinion.
