Just my 2 cents on the cost. I started out with a budget light (not quite the level of a cyo), it was fine. I now have an Edelux (v1)+SONdeluxe, does it perform 10x better then my last one not really. But i don't regret getting it as they are really well made items.
If the cost is preventing you from getting a dyno setup, then i'd agree with Justin, go for the Cyo and one of the other dyno options (SV, Sanyo, Shimano), as functionally i don't feel you'd notice a difference. If you're at peace with wanting to have nice things and spending the money accordingly, then go for the Edelux+SON as they are pretty nice. If you're OK with the idea of buying from over-seas, there are some options where you can save some money, but that does limit your warranty options if something happens to them down the road and both of these have pretty long warranties. And i don't look at it that quality bike things are getting crazy expensive, i look at it as the range of affordable stuff has gotten so good that it's hard to justify paying more--which goes back to me 'nice things' comment :) On Saturday, July 19, 2014 3:07:27 PM UTC-4, lungimsam wrote: > > Still mulling over getting a hub generator and light. > Crazy expensive, though. > Seems like most quality bike things are getting crazy expensive these days. > > *1.
