True. But in that case you're looking at an extremely niche product.

It's just a generic, box section, double-walled, slightly wide aluminum rim with machined sidewalls. I've been using one happily for about a year. I'm happy to have it. I do think, though, that the Ssnyo is probably the ugliest of all the dynamo hubs...



I also have a cheaper wheel that I bought here in Sweden (~$60) with a 2.4 Watt nutted Shimano hub and a double-walled alex rim. This one works great too, but I use a battery-operated rear lamp.
