Re: [RBW] 2017 latest dynamo/lights that are best in the world?

No … the IQ-X is far, far brighter. The Magnic Lights aren’t as bright, but they are bright enough to ride by, are always on, and have virtually no drag. It’s all about trade-offs. --Eric Norris campyonly...@me.com @CampyOnlyguy (Twitter/Instagram) > On Jul 21, 2017, at 12:00 PM, lum gim fong

Depending on your terrain, a one tooth difference may not be essential, so a 16-18 could get you there. I use my 32/40 16/19 set up for all roads and trails, including singletrack on Pikes Peak. If your terrain is less extreme, you'll do just fine with a 16-18. Where are you riding? With

Re: [RBW] 2017 latest dynamo/lights that are best in the world?

The big problem with the magniclight is that the lamp is integrated with the generator so you're stuck with the crappy lamp unless you're willing to hand-modify the thing. I suspect you could drive an IQ-X off one of those things (I regularly run an IQ-X + taillight off a Shimano 1n70) though
