Overview
Our inspiring review is coming soon, for now here is what Big Agnes has to say:
THREE-SEASON, SEMI-FREESTANDING, ULTRALIGHT BIKEPACKING TENT
Built for on and off-road, two-wheeled travel and constructed with ultralight materials for fast and light overnight adventures. Now redesigned using stronger, lighter, more sustainably sourced fabrics in a process that reduces water, chemical, and energy use by 50% compared to traditional fabric dying methods. This award-winning, ultralight tent is known for its steep wall architecture and single vertical door to maximize livable space so you can camp more comfortably in the backcountry. With the Fly Creek HV UL1 Bikepack Solution Dye, you get all of the weatherproof and technical features of a 3-season, 1-person bikepacking tent but made with ultralight, sustainable materials that are built to last.
12″ SHORTSTIK POLESET
Our Shortstik poleset allows your tent to pack down into a shorter, smaller size. Ideal for packing onto handlebars, panniers and saddlebags, or just saving space in any pack.
50% REDUCTION IN WATER REQUIRED
Nearly 5 gallons of water saved per tent on some models
80% REDUCTION IN ENERGY REQUIRED
Significantly reduces carbon emissions
80% FEWER CHEMICALS USED
For a cleaner and safer dyeing and finishing process
Big Agnes is the first to introduce solution-dyed tent body and fly fabrics to the equipment category. The result is better for the environment and the high UV resistance of the solution-dyed fabrics improves the quality of our tents. Improving already great tents isn’t easy, choosing to lessen the environmental impact while doing so is.
