one of the Kinesis Ambassadors (Emma Osenton) had a go with them and rated them quite well for the price, iirc.

The neatest way to do it would be to print a new battery cover with the quarter turn interface built onto the bottom. However, drawing such a thing in 3D is totally beyond me.

Re: Dynamo Light of choice - fork mounted gravel use mid range

I looked at the Secula after you mentioned it earlier. Seems like a very good and wallet friendly option. I may well go for that myself once the Igaro turns up.

I've seen extremely well priced BB7 mtb brakes on there, and it won't be long before I get a pair for my ss mtb, but never Spykes unless they're rebranded?
