Behold the Trail Evo. Our flagship light, the sum total of our decades of experience designing automotive optics, all neatly wrapped up in the best bike light we have ever engineered.
Think of this as harnessing the sun to your mountain (or gravel) bike.
An amazingly wide beam pattern with a balanced carpet of light from the front of your tire to where you are looking. Giving you the sensation of riding in daylight.
Zero wires, long battery life, USB-C rapid charging, simple interface, a robust and easy to install quick release mount. What more could you want?
Backed by years of automotive lighting experience, built here in Chicago, IL, and a generous 3-year warranty (with an extended "don't-be-a-jerk" policy) that covers everything, including gnarly crashes, as long as you have a great story behind it!
Shipped direct from us, as soon as same-day if ordered by the daily deadline.
What is adaptive mode? Nothing too fancy, it is just the default mode when the light is turned on. It stays on high for about 5 minutes, and over the course of 30 minutes it will very slowly reduce brightness to medium mode while your eyes ADAPT to the darkness.
Letting you get more runtime, without noticing a thing by tricking your brain.
All other modes are solid output so you know what you are getting at any time.

I love it, it has a sleek look and is brighter than any light I've ever used.

Any other light is just a waste
Like the title says. These are hands down the best wireless lights you can buy. Long lasting battery and super bright output. The customer service is also top notch. A biking light for bikers made by bikers

Awesome lights!
Got mine last week and its been great for fat biking, hoping to get out on dirt soon for some copper harbor night laps. I was initially worried about the lack of removable batteries for when they eventually die but I saw you guys will replace the cells so I'm all on board!!

Trail Evo is BADASS
This light is amazing! I have only used it for my commute thus far (I know, brought a bazooka to a pool noodle fight...) Cannot wait to bring it out on trail once the snow melts!

Unbelievable light for commuting. Simple operation with plenty of light.

Awesome Customer Service
I travel yearly to the Yucatan Peninsula to visit family and friends. This year I brought my OutboundLighting Trail Evo and Hangover to do some jungle night rides. These lights were the best and I was frequently asked where I got them or if I would sell them. Well, during one ride, we got caught up in a heavy downpour, tropical style. The TE, continued working perfectly. It wasn’t until I arrived home after the ride it started to short circuit and turn off and on by itself, randomly. I notified OutboundLighting and was helped by Jason. Long story short, Jason said to send back the Trail Evo, to inspect and repair or replace. He kept his word and I have a new Trail Evo on my bike and having awesome night rides. Thank you OutboundLighting, I look forward to meeting the crew at the Sea Otter this year.
Mind blowing, incredible, and game changing are a few of the words used to describe how seamless and bright the Trail Evo beam pattern is.
The Bike Light Evolution:
When we launched the Trail Edition back in 2017 it was a game changer for bike lights.
A beam pattern specifically designed for trail riding with a wide evenly illuminated distribution. However it required an external battery pack, and we had lots of customers wanting to go wireless.
So we took the best parts of Trail, and evolved it into the Trail Evo. Bringing a long lasting, even brighter, even wider beam pattern to your handlebars, without any external cords.
Advanced Optical Engineering
When we developed Evo’s beam pattern, we knew we could go wider and brighter, so we redefined our illumination goals, target candela points, beam angles, and then went to work simulating, testing, prototyping and developing the most seamless pattern we've built to date.
The extreme width is thanks to the finely tuned blended Total Internal Reflection (TIR) optics. Hundreds of simulations with Lucidshape software let us squish, squeeze, stretch and shape the light to hit that perfect balance of peak brightness, smooth falloff and insane peripheral coverage.
Check the slider comparison below to see the difference between a fine tuned optical instrument such as Trail Evo vs a name-brand light that has been around for years. The difference is staggering in person.
Go further.
Ride longer.
Explore more.
See that sunset from the mountaintop, not the parking lot thanks to long runtimes, USB-C pass through charging and a dose of quality engineering.
Headlight.
Not a Flashlight.
You wouldn't drive a car with a flashlight strapped to your hood. Why do the same with your bike? Trail Evo is a proper automotive grade headlight designed to be front and center on your handlebars.
Cold Weather?
No Problem!
Innovative engineering keeps more heat in the batteries compared to competitors; letting you ride longer even in the coldest weather.
No wires.
No Mess.
Clean and simple.
Say goodbye to bulky battery packs, hanging wires, zipties, and rubber bands holding your lights on your handlebar.
Rock Solid Mounting
A good light isn’t so good if it’s bouncing up and down on all the time. That’s why we made a bolt-on clamp mount for Evo. It’s solidly locked to the bar and the beam won’t shake around like lights with rubber strap mounts do.
It's an easy one-handed quick-release process to pop Trail Evo off post-ride to charge.
Refreshingly Simple
Few people read instruction manuals, even fewer want to, so we keep our lights dead simple so that you don’t need an advanced degree to remember a complicated sequence of button presses get to the mode you want.
Thermally Engineered
High power bike lights get hot, that is why we use our engineering prowess to keep them cool. Utilizing another industry first, we collect air through a scoop underneath the light, and pass it through the light, cooling all nine LED's that are spread apart to balance the heat load.
USB-C Pass-Thru Charging
We were one of the first to offer USB-C charging as standard, except we took it a step further by offering pass-through charging as well. This lets you plug in any USB power bank and charge the light while in use, in any mode. Game changer for 24 hour races and extra long night rides!
Lead the ride,
light the way.
Incredible performance means you’ll be the one out front on that next group ride.
