From the company who produces the much beloved Cyo, comes B&M’s new light, the IQ2-TEC. Holy moley.
- 70 Lux, LED IQ2-TEC

Alternates between 70 Lux normal and 90 Lux floodlight
Integrated USB charger
Cache battery
Rear Light Monitoring
Handlebar controls

Just for reference:
- 60 Lux, LED IQ-TEC (aka Cyo 60 – what I have on my XO)


The difference is significant.
I wish this had come out last year. Dammit. I’m not not going to get it, but I will wait and hope someone else goes first.
At 179eu ($230 US) it’s the same price as most of the Supernova, eDelux, and other higher end commercial grade dynamo lights, but it includes a USB charger which makes so much sense it hurts, and is a huge value-add.
Thanks Alex and Fred for the point out. Hopefully it stands up in real life like it’s being presented here.

Blew my mind when I saw Alex post this. And shortly after I purchased a PedalPower cache battery/charge unit. grumble.
Yeah I think many of us are feeling this way. Stuff getting more rad by leaps and bounds… a good problem to have right?
