9 speed Shimano compatible hubs and Racing 5 wheels

Hello,
After a lifetime of pedaling through quarries, backwoods and away from the scene of the crime on mountain and street bikes, I'm now building a machine for training on tarmacadam, ahead of sportive adventures.
I've sourced a wheelset: Fulcrum Racing 5, of unknown year. The rear hub spins smoothly enough but is significantly noisier than the front, which is silent. I'd like to fit a replacement hub or have one in the shed, ready to rock.
Would you advise on where to get 9 speed Shimano compatible rear hubs to fit Racing 5s? Thank you.
I'm screwing bits on to a 2004 Principia Evolution frameset. I did dirty deeds to get hold of shiny, curvy new old stock Dura-Ace 7700 brakes and mech. The chainset, cassette and BB are low mileage Ultegra 6500.
Thanks, Johnny.

That's a mission impossible or unnecessary expensive.
The good news ist that the Racing 5 hub is simple and easy to maintain or repair.
Noisy> take the freehub off and apply new grease on the pawls
Running not smooth> change bearings, cost a 5 quid p/p0 -
Ah, sweet advice. Dank je.0
