  • I'm thinking about going for a pair of dynamo lights on an old 26" MTB - I'm looking for a fairly budget solution, just how terrible are the Shimano DH-3N31 hubs? From what I can tell they are fairly notchy... Is there another budget option to consider when going for hub dynamos? Is there a particular hub that's well known for price against performance?
    This bike won't be really heavily used - mainly used on shitty days.

    I'm a complete novice to this so any advice would be appreciated!

  • There's an ebay shop who sell dyno wheels all built, bundles with lights too, really fast and easy and cheap. Bought the basic lights & 26 wheel for a present, has a pretty basic shimano hub but it's fine. They do B&M setups as well. Can't remember the name but it's been talked about here or on the dynamo hubs thread by @cornelius_blackfoot amongst others.

    Edit: Shop name is partsforbike-online.

  • @M_V Thanks, good to know

    The bundles they do look good, but the light sets that come don't suit my needs -
    So if I was to go for a wheel like this:

    Then I'd need any light set that worked on a 6v right?
