[RBW] Lumotec IQ Cyo vs IQ Fly

2010-10-12 Thread M. Chandler
I'm getting ready to purchase a Shimano dynohub-equipped front wheel, and have narrowed my head lamp choice to the Lumotec IQ Fly and IQ Cyo. I'm not sure if the latter would be compatible with low-profile canti's and fork crown mounting, however (see pics below). Does anyone out there have exper

I recently did some reading/research, and the IQ Cyo seems to be the favorite (under $150). My commuter has low-profile cantilevers, so I'm waiting for Peter White to receive his shipment of compatible mounting brackets. For rear lights, I like the PDW Radbot (and Fenderbot) and Cat Eye Reflex.

Shimano's road triples are too tall for my needs, so I'm wondering if there are brifter-friendly cranks in the 26/36/46 range out there.
