Chainring bolts all tight, pedal bolts tight as hell, no play from cranks and standing on pedal at 6oclock on both sides and bouncing for a bit creates no sound. What in the wheel might cause a click? Generally the click only happens once at a start of a ride and then I don't tend to hear it after.
The chain is lubed and is generally silent; what else needs lubing?
Borrow a torque wrench.
Can you recreate the sound by standing on a single pedal with bike against wall? Or moving cranks side to side to check play. Can also try standing on crank arms to eliminate pedals and can check wheel by leaving feet off pedals and/or isolating it from chain, etc.
Clean and lube everything properly too.
