Thanks for this!

I own an Independent Fabrication Ti bike that I may one day convert to a winter/wet weather urban assault bike (when another new one that is more focused on the task at hand arrives shortly) and if I keep the bike I may get a dynamo hub and drill some holes for some internal wiring.

I owned a bike a few years ago that had a dynamo hub and loved the functionality and never having to worry about charging a battery or anything else.

There is something extremely satisfying about generating our own electricity for the lights on the bikes.
