When I was installing the light on the bike, I lost the screw to the mounting bracket emailed Outbound where I was met with the prompt email, followed up by quick delivery of the screw that I lost free of charge… You don’t get customer service like that much nowadays these guys are awesome. Oh and I forgot to mention the light is fantastic definitely thumbs up all the way around
Thanks for a fantastic product and even better customer service!!

I'm still very happy with my Trail Evo, the smoothness of the beam is incredible and the runtime too!
Very happy hungarian customer here.🚴

So bright!
We went on a bike ride over the weekend that takes you through a 1.5 mile old train tunnel that is pitch black. These lights lit up the tunnel way better than any other light I saw. I will be purchasing another for my other bike!

Day Light Flash Mode
I have been using front lights on my recumbents for 14 years. This light in flash mode because of the wide width, light pattern stops cars backing out of garages as soon as driver clears garage door opening they see flashing and stop. Also stops cars that pull out from side streets to main road faster because of wide pattern that any lights I have used before. Easy to remove and charge when needed. Also can charge on bike.

Best Light Out There
This light is a solid product that outshines (see what I did there?) the competition. No messy cables. Easy to use and solid mount. Great beam pattern. And the customer support is great if I have any questions about the light. I cannot say enough good things about Outbound Lighting.

Trail Evo
This would be my 4th OL purchase - first was the original one with external battery pack, second is the hangover helmet light, third is the Trail Evo that I stupidly left on my bike rack and drove off.
Outbound Lighting has absolutely nailed it with this light. As a mountain biker who rides deep into the night, I need gear that performs flawlessly—and this delivers in every way. The beam pattern is incredibly well-engineered: wide, even, and natural, with no harsh hotspots or tunnel vision. It lights up the entire trail and periphery, giving me the confidence to ride fast and technical after the sun sets.
The build quality is rugged and sleek, and mounting it was a breeze—secure even on rough descents. Battery life is excellent, lasting well through long rides with no sudden drop-offs in brightness.
But what really sets Outbound Lighting apart is their customer service. I ordered the light but forgot to add the wire organizer, I sent an email to modify my order before it ships out, I received an email from Jason, confirming that they corrected my order before even responding to my email. It’s clear they stand behind their product and actually care about the people using it.
If you're serious about night riding, this light is worth every penny. Top-tier performance and top-tier support—can’t ask for more. 🚵♂️💡👏
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.
