The M99 DY Pro has a bit lower light output at slower speeds than other lights but then gets a lot brighter, so it's probably best at descents.

Problem is I don't know how any of them compare with an E3 Triple or klite MTB, which are the only two dynamo lights I've used. Max light on descents is where you want it though, obviously and that's how the klite works - quite low crawling uphill and then bright when you're doing over 20kph or whatever.

That's interesting. I was going to hit up a TCR rider to try and get a discounted E3 Triple but they don't make them any more. Now I'm wondering what dynamo lights to go for (I want one for the Surly, the Crux possibly and my partner's bike/s). I have a klite on my MTB but they're very spendy so I want something 'good enough' but more like this M99 DY Pro (such catchy names). 273EU is still pretty spendy considering I paid not much more than 100E for my two E3 Triples.
Our use-case is variable though - in town, road audaxes and off-road adventures. I've used the Supernova Triple for most stuff and like it but the klite is cool too, especially for MTBing.
