I feel the noise freehubs make is wack (except old Shimano MTB ones which are almost silent). I have definitely scared off wildlife I want get closer to with a Horp. Onyx are pretty quiet I gather. £££. Good luck finding out what the Novatech is like.

I don't find novatec particularly noisy, definitely less than hope or DT, but could be me so used to have them in a few of my wheels.

Couldn't see a hub thread... any experts on free hub noise here?
Trying to find out what Novatech D412SB are like. Youtube videos are not much use, 1 wheel in isolation spun indoors is not the same as on the road.
How would they compare with, e.g.
DT350 - make a noise on the bike when spun, can barely notice on the road when riding.
Hope RS4 - a little louder then the DT350 but won't get in the way of a conversation.
DT180 EXP- WHAT DID YOU SAY, STOP FREEWHEELING AND TRY AGAIN
Trying to recommend something quiet for a friend that LB might stock and can be configured TA front, QR rear without being mega spendy. https://www.lightbicycle.com/newsletter/Light-Bicycle-Bike-Hub-List-of-2020.html
