I think I know the answer, but please (y'all) confirm my suspicion: this plugless (better than "wireless") connection system requires a particular model of the SON hub, right? My old (2006?) SON -- model made for small wheels but installed in a 26" wheel -- will not work with this sort of in-fork wiring right?
I ask because I may before too long have a fork made to match a new frame, and I'd love this feature, but I'm not sure I want to pay $273+ for another SON hub when mine still works just fine. If I buy another uber alles German lighting product, it will be an Edeluxe II to replace the doughty Edeluxe I. FWIW, after having use many Shimano and SP dynohubs with their "cartridge" wiring plugs, and 2 SON hubs with their ungoverned prongs, I have to say that a simple plug would make a great deal of the attachment/reattachment hassle -- well, much less of a hassle. I bound the female plugs for the SON together with shrink tubing and a zip tie, and they are much less errant now than if left single and isolated; but still, a cheap plastic Shimano-type plug makes life much easier. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
