I have to adjust the rear derailleur. It works fine in the large

of the time. So the alignment is pretty close to right but not quite.

Thought I might buy that for Liebermann but the citation led to Amazon

I suspect a smaller windmill like that would probably produce noise, due to
proximity.
 The big ones in the hidden valleys behind my folks place, are quiet but
your some distance from the moving parts, if get close to the fence is a
low quiet rumble.

The large windmill I stood directly beneath, along a deserted western U.S. highway, produced a barely audible transmission gear noise. Nothing else.
