In this video Jason from notJustBikes shows these lights and I really like the design. Do you know what is the company that makes these? Are they any good?

    Buying a wheel and lights from Germany can be well worth while. They have regulations and expectations so they’re very common mainstream items, and starting prices are surprisingly low.

    If you can build a wheel, which is a great skill to acquire (truing stand for Christmas?), swapping in a dynohub may be pretty easy. The flange size may be close enough to reuse the spokes. I did it - felt weird to deconstruct a brand new wheel.

        I’ve used bike-discount.de and got some good stuff to the US. There’s a flat shipping fee so if you combine a few things it spreads the cost.

        First time I wanted a dynamo hub to build up a wheel I went there and found I could buy a whole wheel with the hub and decent flanged spokes for less than the hub alone cost on Amazon US. I was disappointed as I really wanted to build a wheel :(.

        Edit: I look there now and wheels aren’t shipping to the US. Of course I don’t know where you are…
