Binding Noise Coming From Front Sprocket
I am hearing a loud clicking coming from the front sprocket almost as if it is binding up. The chain tension is good, about a thousand miles on the chain and sprocket, and I have lubed it so I am thinking its not a chain problem. It almost sounds internal but I may be over reacting. My roommate swears it's normal but I do not remember the loud almost clunking and not so much the low fizz sound it makes when you spin the rear tire. There does not seem to be any problems while riding, seem being the operative word. Anybody have any ideas

Ya I check the tensioner measurement with a caliper. The problem I am running into now is that if I loosen up the chain a little bit the sound goes away but it is WAAAY to much slack to be riding with. The moment I tighten it up just a little bit the sound comes back. Someone said something about the transmission, if that is the case any ideas as to what would be wrong in the transmission
