“Rolling through the golden hour of a summer night, you feel as free as the wind. The sun dips below the horizon, but the magic of the day lingers, drawing you to explore further. Without a thought, your bike light flickers on, bringing new paths to light as you discover places you’ve never been before. How? Your new wheels are equipped with a dynamo hub that smoothly converts the energy of your pedal strokes into electric light. This self-sufficient system ensures that your adventures are limited only by your imagination.” – DT Swiss
Dynamo Hub Technology
“From a distance, what may look like a standard hub fitted to your wheelset is actually hiding a dynamo. We collaborated with Shutter Precision, a market leader for dynamo hub technology, smoothly integrating their SP PL-7 generator into a tailored hub shell.”
Dynamo Hub Features
“What makes the dynamo hub special is hidden in his hub shell. From a distance, what looks like a standard hub when fitted to your wheelset
is actually hiding a dynamo.”
Efficiency
“As one of the most efficient technology on the market, our dynamo hub with the SP PL-7 generator achieve an efficiency of 72% at 15 km/h, while delivering a 6V3W standard output.”
“So, for an output of 3 watts, 4.2 watts of your rolling power are used to power the lights.”

“Our new front Dynamo Hub being StVZO compliant with a 6V3W rating, ensures compatibility with standard hub dynamo products including dynamo lamps and converters for USB powered devices.”
