I just installed on my Atlantis a SON 28 Dyad 36 wheel Rich built for me with SON Edelux and rode it for the first time today. It wasn't fully dark so aside from enjoying how good it looks, and the Senso function, I'll have to wait until it gets ligher later in the mornings and/or darker earlier in the evenings to fully assess it.
I paired it to a Spanninga Plateo Rack Mount Battery Tail Light that I bough from Velo Orange that also has the Senso function so even being battery operated, when the bike is moving (not when it's stopped) and it's starting to get dark, the tail light also lights up automatically. I have yet to fully test it to understand for how long it stays lit (if at all) once the bike stops, but I could assert today that when off, it will turn on when you roll the bike. It has a huge reflector and seems to be pretty bright, but it doesn't have a blinker setting, which I've read is better as blinkers tend to draw the eyes and where the eyes go the car goes, especially if the driver is impaired by alcohol. I don't know if that is true, and for extra visibility I also carry a PB super bright rear light clipped to my Sackville Medium Saddlebag. Sometimes I set it up to blink, sometimes not... Anyway, this being my first ever dynamo setting, I'm feeling pretty excited and will be happy to share my experiences. The front/rear Senso feature is awesome as it means I don't have to remember to turn the lights on or off, just go riding... and know that if it starts getting darker they'll turn on automatically.
