Probably the grease in the pawls is too viscous, or too much grease has been used.  The pawls are not clicking back into position quickly.

or take apeg from the washing line , cut a piece of plastic outta coke bottle and attach to bak somewhere . Make sure the plastic bit touch the spokes . For louder ticks use thicker plastic
