It’s dark and miserable out there these days. This week’s Product Pick is the Serfas True 1500 light. It’s crazy bright (the 1500 stands for number of lumens), has a great beam pattern, proper burn times, and burly construction. Whether it’s early morning commuting, road riding, or off-road mountain bike adventures after work, the True 1500 is a great product (or gift!) for anyone who rides at night.

Quick specs:

  • Over 1500 Lumens in Overdrive mode
  • Ram Air Vent Cooling System
  • Includes Helmet Mount and Battery Extension Cable
  • Battery Charge Indicator
  • Water Resistant
  • Tool Free installation
  • Up to 2.5 Hours Runtime in Overdrive Mode (3.5 on High)

The Serfas True 1500 is available at all three OBB locations.

Serface True 1500 – $399.99

We have Serfas True 250, True 500 & True 1500 lights on sale all December for 10% off! We always recommend riding with a second light as a spare, usually a helmet-mounted one, and the smaller True 250 & True 500 lights are great for that; they’re also great for commuters.
