got my new wheel with shimano electro hub to replace my very, very squeaky SP hub.

it’s nice to not have a ton of extra resistance when I ride but, HOLY FUCK does the shimano have a ton of vibration, wowzers. way more than SP

also, I had the shop (fancy expensive coolbro shop) do the tape job and I think they fucked it up. i got the tire mounted with a floor pump but am getting a lot of leaking around the valve. that’s a tape fuckup right?

should I take it back to the shop or just tape it myself?

Other than it being way more expensive, SON rackmount rear lights appreciably better, if at all, than a Secula?  
Have heard rumor that they’re incompatible with IQ-x, fact or fiction?

my unscientific observation is that bigger lights work better for visibility. I don’t know if I’ve ever ridden behind on those jawns tho. anything is better than the various bare LED bulb lights out there

Yeah, I very well may be getting vanity in the way of function, but saw this on IG was inspired:

I was thinking the fork should be turned 180 degrees and the light should be a glowing meatball stuck on the tines.

I now see I wasn’t clear, I mean mounting to the fender mount on the drop out.

This is what I was thinking of

Unlike fender mounting, it stays put when you remove the fenders

I’d rather just 3d print it on my own but yeah that looks flimsy as hell

If I was feeling extra dithery, would it be a great or terrible idea to try and find a way to route my dynamo cable to my rear light through the cfr696 and drill a hole somewhere in the seatpost to let the cable out just behind the light?
