I have a couple of VO freehubs and don't find the ratchet sound to be too loud. Pretty similar to the White Ind hub on my brevet bike. The Phil on my tandem is notably louder.The Shimano on my Cheviot is a lot quieter, but has been pumped full of oil to try to turn it back to a free hub from a fixed hub.
