Wheels with a sexy clicking noise please.

[Albert Bridge]

I'm after a new set of wheels and have a budget of £250 max. Ideally I would like the rear hub to make the lovely clicking noise that my current FSA RD420's make. Can anyone make any recommendations please?

My cheapy cheap "DT SWISS R 24'S" click lovely.

Any dry free hub in need of lube probably.

The worst (I find it annoying) was the zipp 303 I had, the the Enve on CK hubs I have now are far more pleasant. Cliff Royce said to me that his hubs should be fairly quiet and if loud then something needed attention.

Thanks for the replies so far. Would anyone have any experience of these?

Campy Zondas noisy as hell.

Shimano Ultegras are clicking great

[nammynake]

Does Hope do road hubs? The ones on my MTB can be heard from miles away.

Yes, Zondas have a good click.

I'm sure my Ultegras are silent....

Yep, mine do too - if they're running smoothly you can barely hear them

Same here, mine are as good as silent too.

The Novatec hubs on my old bike though, made a hell of a noise!

Thanks - I think I'm going to go for the Zondas

Bleugh clicking wheels.

I've got some Novatecs that click like mad.

Put some grease on the freehub pawls then.

I have some of these on the commuter. They're brilliant because pedestrians on shared paths can hear me a mile off and get out of the way. No need for a bell
