Cyo Wiring Tip

Someone called recently asking for suggestions about what to do with the Cyo tailight wiring connectors if you’re not using a tailight. Unlike other dynamo headlights the tailight connectors for the Cyo are not connected to the headlight body, but attached to a few inches of wire. If you’re not using a tailight the stray wires look a little ragged.

One fix is the take a piece of heat shrink tubing and sleeve the connectors with the main headlight wire. Apply a little heat and you’re finished. The wires are tidied up and you can cut the heat shrink off with a razor to connect a tailight in the future.

    Good info, and a handy little technique. Though I would ask why one is riding with no tail light. I would dare say it is more important than the headlight. Unless they were just using a battery operated version.

    I followed this tip installing the cyo I got from you. Looks great and works well. Thank you.

    I would assume that anyone who cares enough to buy a dynohub setup and spends over $100 on a headlight is using a tailight. I’ve never seen anyone use a dynamo headlight and no tailight.
