Well, I've got too many bikes and almost all of them have dynamo hubs w/lights so although I don't have the knowledge of Peter I know what works. I think an important factor would be what type of riding you do? If you are mostly going to be touring I think the Edelux is the bad boy or maybe the Sinewave. For strictly offroad the Sinewave or Supernova. Around town commuting I've noticed if I am running a light brighter than 70 Lux oncoming cars flash their lights at me and 70ish Lux is more then enough in an urban environment were there's other ambient light. I've used an early Supernova, B&Ms' Eyc, Cyo & IQ-XS. I've also used some cheaper lights by Panasonic & Spanniga, but I wouldn't recommend them. There's an Asian light I like a lot that I've gotten off Ebay, I don't know what the name is, but it has a metal housing & costs about 40 bucks. It's about 40 or 50Lux & doesn't have a stand light, but I like it because I don't need to worry much about it on my "around town" bikes and it's sturdy enough for offroad. All things considered I would say the best light is the B&M IQ-XS. Plenty bright, nice light pattern, beautiful construction and not too expensive although the price has gone up enough on them so that maybe you might as well bump up to theIQ-X for $58. More!? I have 3 of the IQ-XS; most I bought for around $85. They've gone up about 20 bucks since then.
