The Radavist

Shutter Precision has made a name for itself with affordable, hassle-free dynamo products. Their latest being the DS-4 dynamo lamp. This small light kicks out 290lm and will work with any dynamo hub. What’s genius about it is its direct stem-mount design. It also ships with fork mount brackets if you prefer that. While there are other lamp models out there, it’s hard to deny the DS-4’s simplicity and the price is about $200 USD from Taiwan.

A couple of people asked about the lamp that’s on Erik’s AWOL x Poler tourer. Earlier this year, when we rode the Outback, it was his sole light source for when the sun set over eastern Oregon. It’s best described as a “super-wide and super-bright beam.”

The Flux uses a Cree LED with a patented reflector for bright and wide light, much like you’d find in the automotive industry.

Powering the Flux are internal rechargeable 5200mAhr Lithium Ion batteries and there are three nighttime modes with power resulting between 1,200 and 400 lumens. You’ll get 1.75 hours at 1,200 and 6 at 400 lumens and it’ll recharge from zero to full in just four hours.

The Flux will hit shelves at your local Specialized dealer shortly.
