For "bright lights" as per the OP, dynamo lights (other than Supernova E3 Triple, Exposure Revo D, maybe the Cyo Premium) ain't gonna cut it.




Shaped beams are overrated. A very powerful light (regardless of it being a flashlight or a dedicated bike light) makes a good vehicle light.
Well, we all have opinions, who's to say which is correct.
