Re: [RBW] IQ-X Headlight

[Eric Norris]

Right. I have one of my IQ-Xs mounted on a metal fork crown mount from another 
light. The other is mounted to a dedicated mounting point on a front rack. I 
haven’t used the factory-supplied IQ-X bracket.

Re: [RBW] IQ-X Headlight

[Peter White]

Perhaps. But that part hasn't changed either. It's also made of the same
polybrimolated plasticky stuff that seems to be quite tough.

Hmm, polybrimolation. Sounds technical!

Re: [RBW] IQ-X Headlight

[Eric Norris]

I think the writer was referring to the metal bracket that fastens to the bike, 
not the plastic part that wraps around the body of the light.

FWIW, I haven’t had any troubles with the IQ-X lights I’ve installed on two 
different bikes. The plastic part seems plenty strong, given that the unit 
itself is very lightweight.

We received a shipment of IQ-X just two weeks ago. I just checked one from

The lens/reflector cover is plastic. If it is like the Cyo lenses, it will 
survive winter fine. It will eventually get scratched and yellow from

The lens is plastic.

You can use any 6 volt Busch & Müller, Schmidt or Spanninga taillight with
it. If you use a Supernova taillight, the taillight will have no
standlight. I don't know about other brands of taillights, but most should
work.

[Alex Wirth]

I've been riding with the IQ-X for a couple weeks now and LOVE it.  For me, the 
best thing about it is the fact that it cuts through the shadows and bright 
areas during urban riding for a consistent view of the road/irregularities (due 
to its bright output).

Two thumbs up.

I believe all lights manufactured in Germany are required to have this

Re: [RBW] IQ-X Headlight

[Eric Norris]

My IQ-X does seems flash a bit more at very low speeds than my other LED dyno 
lights. I attribute that to the brighter LED, which probably requires a little 
more power to light up. 

Anyway, we’re talking walking speed here—get on the bike and start riding and 
the headlight lights up like any other at a very slow riding speed.

Re: [RBW] IQ-X Headlight

[William Henderson]

Right. Sort of an unfortunate design when combined with the fact that the
light is always on. The ideal behavior is that light would somehow suppress
the bright light unless it had enough power to keep it on for several
seconds. Sort of an inverse standlight.

Best,
William

Re: [RBW] IQ-X Headlight

[Patrick Moore]

If the IQ-X is brighter than the Supernova, I wish I'd known about it
before I bought a K-Lite ($275 with shipping from NSW Austraila), which
switches between a claimed 600 w and 1000 w. Am waiting for the bike to be
built on which it will be installed.

I'll be very interested in your review.
