I love the instant engagement but torn on the ninja aspect. My wiife's bike xprezo has xt hubs which are almost silent , mine are hope's 64poi's and sounds like swarm of bees. On one hand quiet is beautiful but my noisy hubs are fantastic at alerting people and dogs etc when you are approaching from behind. I few quick back pedals and people look over their shoulder every time even if they have earbuds in most times.
