ok i think i figured it out. i put the wheel on my other bike to see if that helps to diagnose whats wrong and the noise is gone. so somehow its the combination of that wheel with my crank and new chain. seeing as the chain is the only new factor since the noise started im going to have to assume its that.
however: i used that chain with a loaner wheel for the last week while the wheel was getting repaired, all without any problem. everything is 1/8 size so why the noise?
i have a feeling there is some sort of simple explanation which basically boils down to me making some sort of noob mistake. does someone have an idea? id like to figure this out before i buy a new chain and (possibly still have the same problem on my hands)
