Any recommendations for bike lights? They all seem to come with non-replaceable internal rechargable batteries these days 😢

    Dynamo lights do add resistance, but unless you’re racing, it doesn’t really make too much difference. The bigger hurdle is the high cost of the hub

      I used to live about 3 miles from school, mostly very flat. It was nice to be able to coast through the flat part. The school was on a small hill. So to get home at night, I could roll down the hill picking up some speed, then coast the rest of the way. A dynamo would have used up that energy.
