Thank you for the info. It turns out I was getting my info from the same place, except I have not read it in over a year! I totally missed this part of what Peter White said on his web site:

"The good German lights I sell are all optimized for mounting at the top of the front tire, bolted to the fork crown. Their distribution of light assumes the light is about 3 feet off the ground."

And as I stated before, I am looking at using one of those "good German lights", the Busch & Müller Ixon IQ Premium.

Thanks again, I appreciate the refresher!
