quiet rear hub

Recommended Posts

Hi

I am looking for a quiet rear hub when free wheeling.Can't stand the noisy ones.

Must be sram 1x12 compatible.

Any suggestions

Thanks

american classic is probably your only option 

 

or maybe with A dt350 with heavy grease 

 

Shimano ,microspline are 100% dead silent but your sram cassette won't fit on there

Onyx ftw. Heavy but very porno. The virtual instant engagement is also a plus. My next hubset will be deathly quiet

Tell you what, I rode a friends old Cannondale C29 hardtail (the xe one with the 80mm lefty) thing just to the shops the other day and that thing does not make noise. At all. Not the slightest tick.  Actually weird and off-putting how quiet and smooth that rear hub is.

The only truly silent XD hub is the Onyx. Good engagement too. As in almost instant. But it is chunky.

 

American Classic still make a noise and the engagement is rubbish. Spares are an issue as well, since they went under and are still looking for a buyer.

 

DT and King are loud, but not as loud as Hope.
