Anyone seen this Alpkit/LoveMud dynamo?

Looks very like an SP, which I've definitely seen branded as Exposure and a few other things I think too.

The price is very good, too good almost. CRC have the non disc version of the 'Exposure' hub for £75, a pucker SP is around £95from SJS, £80-odd from ebay, the Love Mud is £59!

I was going to go for this Alfine wheel from ebay which works out about £95 shipped but if the Love Mud is fundamentally an SP it should be better sealed and a bit more efficient no?

Looks like KT's new dynamo (weights are pretty similar - 415-422g). No surprises that it looks very similar to an SP as they used to make the hubshells for SP. These are pretty much brand new (were showing them at Taipei show) so probably not been all that roadtested yet.

Cheers, probably not too interested in something that's pretty new to market.

I've gone for the Alfine, seems like the Shimano dynamos are not the sexiest but are quite reliable.

I'm thinking B&M IQ Cyo premium front and Supernova E3 rear lights now.
