Gotorch X: Olight First Self-Produced Bicycle Light

Gotorch X: Olight First Self-Produced Bicycle Light

15 Feb, 2023

Almost all of our bicycle lights are made in collaboration with Magicshine, including the two items in this Valentine's Day sale: the RN 100 TL bicycle tail light, the Wyvern bicycle front light, and the previously listed Allty 2000, RN 3500, RN 1500, RN 1200, RN 400, RN 180, RN 120, BFL 1800, BFL 900, SEEMEE 30.

For these co-branded bike lights, you may notice that the box with the manufacturer's information is not only Olight but also the "Made by Magicshine".

But in February 2023, Olight succeeded in designing and producing its own bicycle lights: Gotorch X.


The Gotorch X is a mountain bike light that we hope will give sports riders who like to ride outdoors an unobstructed lighting experience. Let's take a look at some of the features of the Gotorch X.

User experience

It's the best mountain bike light I've ever used! The beam is the best I've ever seen while speeding down the trails. I can easily see everything in front and to the sides. 10 out of 10. Great work Olight!

Quality and warranty

Like most of Olight's torches, Gotorch X is made of aluminium alloy. Aluminium alloy is the raw material used in many bicycles and has the advantage of low weight (low density), high strength and corrosion resistance, making it very hard and resistant.

Olight chose aluminium alloy for the Gotorch X bike light so that when you get an unexpected fall, the light will be just as good as your bike.

Aluminium alloy is more complicated to produce and costs more than plastic, which increases its price.

 

Warranty: You can get a free replacement service on your Gotorch within 30 days and a 2 year warranty against any defects or problems. Contact Olight UK for repair or replacement.

 

Lighting Modes and Runtime

3 lighting modes for choose from

● 2000 lumens super bright mountain bike light

With a range of 250 metres at 2000 lumens, the Gotorch X is a leader in comparison to similar lights. With light reaching farther and brighter, the Gotorch X also offers a floodlight effect, where light spills out on both sides (wide spill) to illuminate the road and objects next to it (a combination of spotlight and floodlight).

● 1000 Lumen bike light

At a low level of output of 1000 lumens, the Gotorch X can also reach a beam distance of 185 metres. It is sufficient for most mountain biking at night and it creates good visibility of closer trail features and obstacles to the front and sides.

● 100-lumen bike light

When you ride in the evening, between 5 pm-7 pm in summer and 4 pm-5 pm in winter, you can switch on the 100-lumen mode and the Gotorch X will illuminate the road up to 55m ahead, which gives you a completely stress-free view.
