Introducing the Bikamper--a tent that quickly integrates with your bike to create a lightweight and compact, backcountry cycle camping shelter!

  • Small, light and versatile, it utilizes the bicycle itself which eliminates the need for heavy, cumbersome tent poles
  • This personal shelter utilizes the bicycle frame and front wheel in place of conventional tent poles
  • Fork anchor axle mounts to the dropouts and has tines on it that get pushed into the ground like a tent stake
  • To further stabilize the bike, there are two draw-down chords that attach to the handle bars and get staked to the ground on both sides of the bike
  • The combination of these two things makes both the bike and tent very stable
  • Bikamper is constructed of durable, waterproof coated 45D ripstop nylon
  • Fly is constructed of fully waterproofed, durable nylon ripstop and offers an additional layer of protection
  • Three mesh windows provide ventilation and stargazing on pleasant nights
  • Both body and fly pack down to a tiny, space saving size and weigh just 2 lbs. 15 oz.
  • Includes fork anchor, stakes, cords, accessory bag and stuff sack
  • Internal hang loops offer contact points for hanging items inside tent

Imported.

    Comments about Topeak Bikamper Tent:

    can only assume that the reviewer who gave this 5 stars has not yet used the tent. hard to set up, poorly designed fly, poor entry/exit, no consideration for condensation (woke up soaked), tippy like a canoe with an itchy hound in the bow.

    • Gift:
    • No

    Bottom Line No, I would not recommend this to a friend
