E bike lights

[Bigkevp]

Hi has anyone got any experience with supernova m99 front light, I know where to wire it but where can I get the correct fitting plug from?

You won the lottery? Cashed in your pension? Jealous, yes sir I am!

I was thinking about a plug for my lowly b+m and think that I may use XT-30s for convenience.

I should be so lucky! I've tried 2 or 3 different styles of torch on my haibike and they are either not bright enough or can't fit them anywhere without cable ties and look hidious or not practical......
Someone must have fitted a supernova pure to their bike?

bikediscount.de now do b+m e-bike lights so I am going for the Lumotec IQ Cyo T with the handlebar mount and a Toplight Mini for a grand total of 80 €

I would love to spend 360 € on the supernovas front and rear but that would represent about 50% of the cost of my bike! 100 € more than the GSM motor! About 16 Ah of nanotech LiPo!

The light you see in my avatar photo to the left there is a battery light so quite heavy. Being mounted to the suspension like that means I have to tighten regularly because it droops. I think the b+m bar mount may fit the supernova too and it also takes the Bosch display. They also have an under saddle mount for rear lights but I guess you will be using the supernova seat post mount? Jealous...

Thanks that's something else to look into, my daily commute is 48 mile round trip so as the nights are starting to draw in I need some serious light. Because I have the nyon I would prefer to use the light function on it and not worry about battery's etc

Is it this what you're after?

you will need to get a dealer to activate the light switch if its not already been done.

More ridiculously priced gear, dealer locked, and a mission to boot!

 

[Bigkevp]

That's exactly what I'm after, thank you muchly.

best hope the dealer is close then as if it had no lights then it will be set to off.

id not spend 350 euro on a light unless i could set stuff on fire with the beam.

a large one of these will hide the cables to the battt pack down the frame.

I've brought simular to that soundwave, there's no neat place to put it and it just looks out of place!

 

[Bigkevp]

And untidy wires!

 

[soundwave]

lot cheaper tho

 

[Bigkevp]

Is that 2015 model you have?

 

[soundwave]

no 2014, 15 was silver one.

 

[Bigkevp]

Have you had any problems with it? Or had to replace anything?

 

[soundwave]

i broke the xd hub jumping it but got it replaced under warranty from crank brothers and lost one of the pivot bolts the only one i cant cable tie on lol.

i changed the handle bars stem grips peddles seat and have hope 203 discs front and rear.

dongled since i had it and no problems bar the above and done over 2000 miles.

also now have dual sprockets at the front 15t and 18t.

You've really got some use from your bike then, are the motors maintenance free do you know?
