My son and I both have the Detour light, his is recent buy May 2026. We completed the 2026 Unbound Gravel 200 in the craziest weather conditions imaginable. Rain, hail, heat, wind, and the final 30 miles in pouring rain and driving wind. Yes lightning all over. Needless to say we were soaked. After making it home we noticed that moisture developed in our lights. I contacted Outbound about my concern and they sent me a shipping lable to ship them back for analysis. within a few days they shipped us new lights. You cant match this type of warranty and customer service! I will be getting at least one more for my wifes bike and will continue to speak highly of this company and what they offer. Outbound Lighting is top notch!

Detour light is awesome (part 1)
Love the Detour light. I have used this light for a couple of years and has never failed me. The pass through charging is primo and I can ride through the night with a backup battery while on medium level power. I havent tested the battery using high beam but believe it is possible to go 7 hours. The cut off detail of the light has become more important recently as i have used it on public streets and oncoming traffic is not blinded. I recomend getting one of these lights according to your riding style and a backup battery. The battery i have used is a slim line 20000 mah power bank 22.5w PD fast charge. This light is fly so you must buy!

Great Light, But Mounting It with My Current Cockpit Setup Was Tricky
I really like this light, but I’ve had trouble finding a good mount and the right place to install it.
I’m currently using a stem mount with a Garmin Edge 540 and an Insta360 Ace Pro 2 action camera, which makes it difficult to use the official standard mount for this light because it physically conflicts with my current setup.
In the end, I used a K-EDGE Go Big mount and intentionally angled it upward so I could mount the light properly.

Amazing lights and customer service
I have nothing but praise for the Outbound Lights. They are a great mix of reasonable cost (relative to their competitors), durability and performance. I’ve used them for night MTB races to commuting and they continue to perform flawlessly. And when I’ve had questions or concerns, the crew at Outbound as incredibly responsive at handled every query promptly.

Good option for rising through the night
Finally had a chance to put my outbound detour to the test. Lost my last light on a gnarly gravel ride (mount broke) and needed something sturdy and capable of long run time. The light would have to get me through my first 600km brevet, so it had to have good output, battery life, and absolutely support pass-through charging. Fittingly, I saw the outbound detour recommended in the Randonneuring subreddit and decided to give it a shot. No regrets. Not a cheap light by any means, but I mean that in all senses of the word. This thing is sturdy, robust, and well designed. It stay firmly mounted where I set it and even on the lowest setting for me through the night. The button is easy to hit and the charging port location made it easy to hook up a battery pack and keep it topped off. Looking forward to more night rides now to dodge this summer heat!

BRIGHT AND Courteous!
I use the Detour for dusk rides around the city of Birmingham, AL. It's very visible and bright. The best feature is that unlike my fellow riders' lights, this thing will not blind unsuspecting riders, bystanders, or drivers. There is a distinct line of illumination that keeps everyone safe!
...also, if Outbound offers discounts to replace Portal lights for idiots who can't find them after weeks of intense searching, I hope they will let me know!
Bringing our automotive lighting experience to provide a clean cut-off beam pattern that evenly illuminates the road ahead. You wouldn't use a flashlight for your car, why use it for your bike?
Optical Engineering
This is the game changer. Not only did we bring the automotive grade cutoff beam pattern to your handlebars, we took it a step further by precisely controlling how much light leaves the light and hits the ground from the front of your tire all the way up to where you are looking. When you read "it's like riding in daylight" this is why.
We are the only USA-based manufacturer of cutoff (also referred to as StVZO) beam pattern bike lights, we also made sure the light has unreal width to light up the ditches and keep the spooky things away.
No wires.
No fuss.
No Problem.
Say goodbye to bulky battery packs, hanging wires, zipties, and rubber bands holding your lights on your handlebar.
Road.
Gravel.
Commute.
Detour was designed with your ride in mind. Long runtime, easy mounting, broad panoramic beam, fast USB-C charging, and all backed by industry leading customer service.
Rock Solid Mounting
A good light isn’t so good if it’s bouncing up and down on the bars all the time. That’s why we made a bolt-on clamp mount for Detour so it’s solidly locked to the bar, With a simple shim it adapts from 35mm to 31.8mm handlebars (25.4 and 22mm shims available) and the beam won’t shake around like lights with rubber strap mounts do.
Keep Life Simple
Few people read instruction manuals, even fewer want to, we keep our lights dead simple so that you don’t need an advanced degree to remember some complicated sequence of button presses to get to the mode you want.
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!
Keeping Cool
When you pick up this light you might be surprised to not feel any metal. Plastic?! Must be something we used to be cheap isn't it? Far from it. This material we use is an incredibly cool (ha) engineered resin that is not only very durable, but also conducts heat. The result is a lightweight, durable, and thermally balanced light housing.
Make your Night ride enjoyable.
It can be sketchy riding at night when you are used to narrow beam patterns better suited for walking in the backyard. Our incredible optical engineering makes riding at night a joy again.
