> Do hub dynamo lights give adequete light on unlit country lanes?
On an unlit cyclepath I find that my SON with Lumotec Oval Senso Plus
(halogen) gives enough light to ride comfortably up to about 12mph, or
14 if I'm feeling slightly reckless. I don't want my speed to be quite
so restricted, so I also use Lumicycles.
If you wire up a second light (like Chris) or if you use an LED lamp
(like the D-Lumotec Oval Senso Plus) then the dynamo should provide
enough light to go a fair bit faster. On unlit country lanes, though,
I'm happier with far more light than I need to see by because it gives
some protection against the kind of motorist who assumes at night that
there will be nothing coming towards him round a bend if he can't see a
headlight beam.
