The Odyssey freewheel is kind of loud. Most people like loud hubs. If you want a silent hub, get a freecoaster.

The odyssey freewheel is quiet. The Cassete is loud. I think the odyssey one will probably be the quietest

The Ody freewheel is pretty loud for a freewheel.

The odyssey one I have is pretty quiet. I tried getting the grease out of it to make it louder, but I couldn't get it apart. Meh.

Have any of you thought it might be for a fixie, where one of the points is for it to be quiet?

One of the things people like about fixies is how quiet they are on the fixed side of the hub.
But you cannot always run the fixed side and sometimes you freewheel it, and it's still nice to have it dead silent.

Silence is boring. Noise is the best thing to happen to the world, besides myself of course.
