Periodic clicking from pedal area

56kbs

Hey guys, I have a Merida Matts 40-D that's about 6 months old but now I'm getting a clicking noise if I pedal hard on the bike, it comes from where the pedals/front gear set is. Anyone have any thoughts on what it could be?

Pedal bearings or BB bearings......

crank flex.
chain rubbing on front mech.

have you checked to see ive everythings tight, you could also take the pedals and cranks off, give them a clean and grease to see if that sorts it (after putting them back on of course)

Pedals of and apply coppaslip to threads
Check pedal bearings
With chain of check BB bearing by sping the crank and looking for play and rough running
Check tightness of chain ring bolts
Check Q/R skewers all kinds of sounds can come from these.

Have you ever had the pedals off then forgot to replace the axle washers.
