I like the IQ X. It’s everything you say, and of course half the price of the
Edelux. The trade-off is build quality. The Edelux’s front “lens,” for
instance, is glass; the IQ X’s is plastic. I’ve never had a problem with my IQ
X, but if you’re looking for the very best, most robust
I’ve been running my Velogical with an Edelux II headlight for several years,

ZERO drag in the “off” position, great German engineering, works with any
wheel. Cons: Sits outside on the frame, where it might be subject to damage
(not a problem for me in several years of use), makes a quiet whirring noise

I’m looking for a pair of gently used 700x28 tires of the “supple” genre (Grand

I find the weight limits very interesting. Rivendell has always marketed their
bikes as the “anti-racer” or “not light” alternative to wispy aluminum and
carbon bikes. Selling a bike with a weight limit most of us would exceed seems
strange. A max of 160 pounds implies to me a bike unlike what
