I used to really like loud hubs, but as I've gotten older I appreciate the more quiet (but higher engagement) variety. I currently am running Roval Carbon wheels/hubs with the DT Swiss 350 internals 54t ratchet, but even after a liberal slathering of DT Swiss grease the noise comes back pretty quick and then its all I hear on my rides.
I am thinking of having the rear rim re-laced with an Onyx or True Precision Stealth hub, any advice or feedback? I like the I9's, but I just fear I'd be getting more of the same with just a higher pitch noise.
