A quick dynohub point... I have around ten years and many, many thousands of miles on a Shimano DH3-N70. It has been great to ride, and I sort of forgot it was there, until I recently started trying out other wheels. In general, the drag is so low you don't notice it unless you're really thinking about it.
Then I got my hands on their most (?) recent version, the DH3-N80. Even better. Unbelievably. I had always sort of pooh-poohed the efficiency differences I'd seen reported, but this may be time for a reconsideration. I I understand that the German dynohubs are even better. Consequently, if you have the money, I would lean that way (a Schmidt, say). OTOH, if you'd like to keep the hub in reasonable territory, say under $130 or so, I'd strongly recommend that DH3-N80. The thing is utterly fantastic. On Sunday, December 14, 2014 4:15:38 PM UTC-5, David wrote: > > Group, would you mind offering your most ideal road-ish riding wheel set > built by Riv (Rich)?
