Thanks, sorry I forgot to say apart from Shimano, it’s for off road use, would prefer sealed bearings.

Shimano hubs have good seals, but if you want cartridge bearings then my bitex hubs have seemed decent and aren't particularly noisey, good engagement but a subtle buzz.

Up to a point. The back of the free hub rotor is poorly protected. If you keep them away from jet washers and immersion, they are fine.
