    Ho hum. Here's me with a Lumotec Plus, two Oval Plusses, two E6s, and an

    Now, /if/ that will fit on a Brom without interfering with the bag
    and/or requiring highly contrived mounting not to do so, they may well
    have a sale in the works...

    Does the SON have a preferred rotation direction that might prevent that?
    (Of course you could just run two lights, one each side, off a single hub.)

    Thanks Marten, out with the measure, though it looks like I've got a

    The SON's with a pressfit housing ( first model with black centerring,
    XS and R) can be used either way

    Schmidt worries that the sidecover will unscrew by itself, I'm always
