Cool. @velocio ^
@Thrustvector not a dig at you posting here, just using our chat as an example of why they should merge. Now we’re going to talk about lights, as are those people mounting their mini b&ms with the ‘linetech’ (hah) prism spread thing pointing up/down instead of left/right.
I’m powering B&M IQS and mini rear. Think 2.4 is standard requirement for old halogens front lights, so LX aimed at front-only set ups. As you say, plenty of 1.5w lights from Shimano now.
I’d say it’s a bit flickery below 6mph or so, set up with a rear. Standlights work fine. All good.
Reckon 36h rimbrake ones are now hard to find. 32’s fine for most uses right? Triple butted spokes, a solid rim, you’ll be fine.
