I was really just about to pull the trigger just now, but I think I'm going to go get something else.
Fyi, I ran across this, I think what you're looking for is the New for fall, 2013 - "Ixon IQ Premium without (AA) batteries and charger, 80 lux, Part # B&M1922QM, Price: $ 106.00 " -

It's supposed to have a similar beam pattern to the "Schmidt Edelux II prototype" light here -

It's B&M's latest LED and beam pattern combination for their dynamo lights, which all have cutoffs like you're looking for.
