    This is normal for Hope hubs. You'll either love it or hate it.

    I didn't really like it when I got my first Hope rear hub, but I got used to it and it sometimes useful to warn pedestrians/dogs/ect that your coming up behind them.

    That's how they are.

    You can quiet them down by pulling the freehub off and packing grease in and around the pawls.
    And now you know, and knowing is half the battle
