Detour Bike Light

Rider 1: (Takes detour on the bike path after a trail ride running Hangover/Evo combo)

Rider 2: (angrily) "I can't see ANYTHING, you look like a train!!!"

Rider 1: (rides home in shame and immediately orders Detour)

The lights are amazing, I hope somewhere that rider found it in their hearts to forgive me. Thanks guys!

I use the Outbound Detour on my road, gravel and fat bike as I do a lot of commuting around town combined with trail use. It's the perfect solution for me and checks all the boxes. I can also run with a small battery pack in the winter time.
Well made by a company that stands behind their products with great service.
What's not to love? Pricey but great value in the long run.

We own four of these lights. Love the beam pattern and cut off. Purchasing yet another one today.

I've tried a lot of lights for riding with my road bike club. NiteRider, Light & Motion, Lezyne, Magic Shine and others as well. Some were brighter than others, some had a better beam pattern, some lighter weight, some better battery life, but none have done it all with the panache that the Outbound Lighting Detour exudes. Its mount keeps it secure on the bar while still easy to remove and charge. The beam pattern gives a nice softer swath near and in front of the wheel while projecting a stronger central beam far enough ahead to avoid road debris at 35mph+. I also appreciate the beam cutoff that keeps some of those wonderful lumens from blinding oncoming traffic. The battery life options are great with the set-and-forget adaptive mode that breezes through my morning club ride, and long-running lower settings that keep the light burning through the early daylight to enhance my vehicular visibility. While it might not be the smallest or lightest of them all, it's not overly large or heavy either, and better in both regards than comparably performing lights. I've been running this light weekly for over a year and it's by far my favorite of the bunch - enough so that I added one of their mtb lights to my cache just last month as well. Great company to work with, too - they'd made an improvement to the Detour beam pattern over the last year and they upgraded the reflector in my light free of charge! Nicely done, guys.

I’ve done a lot of research, and at this point I’ve owned Outbound lights for 3 years now. I have their new road bike light with the cutoff beam, as well as the Hangover and Trail Evo lights. Their lights are amazing, and surely the best out there. They are lightweight, incredibly engineered, super bright, and easily rechargeable. They make riding at night fun!

I can't say enough good things about Outbound or my Detour. Get one. It's better than what you have, no matter how happy you are with your current light. 11/10.
