I have the specs of the Sturmey Archer non-drum dynamos on my spreadsheet and didn't look any further since they are 6v/2.4w when the standard seems to be 5v/3w. The Sturmey Archer HDS73.TBSS.AA2 however has the 70mm drum brake and 6v/3w dynamo rolled into one. I've also found it very cheap ($120).
My hesitation in changing my plan, however, are:
- There aren't many reviews of the hub.
- The weight is 1.2kg where the SP hub is .39kg (I'm no gram counter, but that's major).
- The one review that sticks out is the guy whose 90mm version torqued his fork.
I would love to hear more about your experiences.
