Whats it called ? Tent

Post by bike1769 »

I saw a 1 man shelter at York bike show last year that used your bike as the tent poles. Does anyone know the name of the company or the tent ?
It's needed as i'm planning some overnighters. Thanks.

Is this what you're looking for? (Topeak Bikamper and Bikamper EXP)

On the other hand, you could pop over to cheaptents.co.uk or somewhere, and plenty of their ultralight tents are of a similar weight to the bikamper, cost a similar price and don't require you to have your bike in order to camp with them.

There have been many of these, none have really caught on.

They are not much good if you want to pop down the pub on the bike for an evening :(
