I've had Shimano and SP hubs and ridden them in nasty bumpy gross goop for years. The light weight of the lamps makes them mostly stay put through the rough stuff, and the hubs keep rolling and sending out power no problems (knocking wood). Important would be to make your wire runs low profile and bash/tangle resistant. I've never understood the love of winding the wire around and around the rack struts. If said struts grind against some rock, I want metal on rock, not wire sandwiched between metal and rock. Lately I've been building my own racks with internal wiring to keep it safe at the bike rack and beyond, and modifying a nitto or tubus rack for internal runs isn't a huge deal so long as you're handy with a drill and thoughtful about hole placement. As for seeing, my nighttime single track riding has been mostly on trails I am fairly familiar with, so the lack of light leakage off to the sides and up isn't a huge issue, I actually like the spookiness of it. Get dynoed! -Kai
