UPDATE:
I greased my Silver freehub and it is QUIET!
I expected a change, but with the normal road sounds of the world it is now
virtually silent.
Very pleased with the result of a few youtube tutorials and some bravery.

No need to decide against an otherwise excellent hub due to a loud freehub.
Apply this stuff generously to the pawls and it will silence it several

I have one pair of wheels built onto Onyx hubs, and because the rear hub
uses a sprag clutch instead of pawls or a star ratchet like DT Swiss, they
are completely silent when freewheeling. I find it very nice that when I'm
stooging along out in the country and stop pedalling, I don't have any
Brian, I don't think there a cassette hub made that integrates the pawls
into the hub body that is by any measure, quiet. I've spent too much time
on YT listening to hubs and they're all chainsaw-like, the only different
is to what degree you like you saw sound.. "Special grease" only
Glad to be of some help! It’s probably a bit louder sounding because it’s
echoing inside my garage and off my garage door… but I don’t find it loud or
distracting compared to others. Now, my Crust has a Hope rear hub, and that’s
even louder than a White, possibly louder than Chris King too.
Thanks for everyone’s input. Brian that video is super helpful. I would say
that is pretty loud. 1-10; deore 2, silver 6, white 8.5. I think I’m
looking for a 4 on my scale

I was going to buy a set of SILVER hubs. Once I did some homework, I
realized that it was best to keep what I already had, the stock wheels on
my Clem. The hubs are silent running and the rims are good quality for my
needs.

Remarkable
“Something a touch louder than Deore” is how I’d describe the Silver hub.
I have one on my Sam.
They have great engagement after coasting. Not as much “slip” as other hubs.
I’ve really liked it.

You
I can’t seem to find the link, but a few years ago, Will posted a video of the
sound of a Silver hub.
I’d say the description of being slightly louder than a Deore XT hub is
accurate. But, nowhere near as loud as a White hub, that’s for sure.

Hi all! Can anyone shed light on the sound of Riv Silver Hubs? I have a
White Ind. T11 that is quite loud, I want something more subtle on my Sam
build. I'm familiar with the very quiet Deore option and wouldn't mind
something a touch louder. I'm in contact with Rich on my wheelset and his
14 matches
