Update:
Thanks for the info.
I just ordered a 700c Pacenti/edelux widebody 32 hole/Sapim front and a
700c Pacenti Brevet 32 hole /VO Grand Cru Touring/Sapim rear wheels through
a local wheelbuilder.

It’s about time to put the SON back on the Frances for the Fall. I think the
King hub is a little faster and smoother, but when the SON is on, I’d ride it
anywhere, and love the dynamo light.

I guess it's not quite true that I've never noticed the drag - I DO notice
the difference in efficiency on my Brompton between the original wheel and
the SON-equipped wheel. It's minor, but it's there.

I want to run an IQX on a Schmidt hub.
My Roadeo is way faster than my Rambouillet, and I enjoy the ease of pedaling
it along so I don’t want to slow it down if hubs draggy.
Sounds like ok.
I do have a Schmidt on my 650Ram but forgot if I could feel any drag when I put
it on.

I have a SON28 on my Roadeo. It's great, especially now that the days are
getting shorter again.
All my other bikes have a SP dynamos. Also, great. SON's look nicer, but I
actually like the connector for the SP better.

Virtually ALL the bikes I ride regular have Dynamo hubs. 5 SPs, half dozen
Shimanos & an older SON.
Put it on, set it & forget it!

I have 2 sets of dyno wheels, One Son28 and one SonDelux both built by
Rich. I don't really notice the drag at all. The Son28 is running a
Busch & Muller IQ-X, the Deluxe a Schmidt Edelux ll. The Schmidt light
causes less drag, the IQ-X has a brighter beam but seems more focused in
the center
I have Schmidt hub on my AHH, tHe drag is minor but I feel it.

I don't notice drag with any of my many dynamo hub wheels (SP, Kasai by SP,
SON, Shimano), but I _do_ notice a vibration at some speeds with all of
them. It's subtle, but if you're riding smooth roads you should be able to
sense it. Is it a problem? No. All non-racing bikes should have full
