Before I start checking dynamo hubs, is there some cheaper option? As I said, carbon fork and disk brakes.
Thank you.
I have the Reelight Nova and it's a light to been seen and not to see. You'll still need a front light to see the road. However, it's always good to have a backup front light and you tend to use it less during dusk.
Would I purchase it again? Probably not as I'm looking into bottle dynamos once this light burns out! However, it's so well made, I don't expect that to happen for years!
