[RBW] Dynamo Hub Recommendations

Edited: They're all three good options. I have 2x SON28 Classic (the older version) and 1x Shimano DH3n80 (Ultegra level). I'm happy with them. One of the SON hubs required servicing. I had been using it on my winter commuter and think I must have submerged it at some point in the spring thaw.

2020-05-11 Thread Jonathan D.
I was curious what folks experience are with the different dynamo hub options. The Schmidt Sonn Dynamo hub seem to set the standard but at a high cost. The other two I was looking at are Shutter Precision and the Shimano Dynamo hubs. Anyone seen a good comparison? Should I be concerned with

Just a side note / PSA for forks with steerers threaded down low — which prob does not to be said for this group, but still — just make sure the quill stem expander bolt sits fully below where the threads begin on the steerer, regardless of whether the “maximum height” marker gets buried below

To Mark's point, you'll need to secure the freewheel somehow so you can get at that lock ring with a lot of force - maybe even a pipe wrench. They used to make a freewheel holder that fit into the jaws of a bench vise (one is pictured on Sheldon's website here
