Lightweight bikepacking tent that balances weight and liveability
A roomy yet lightweight tent specifically designed for bikepacking, the Dragonfly Ultralight Bikepacking tent is ideal for weight-conscious cyclists, with design features to make it the essential bikers’ shelter. But it also works great for fast and light wild camps here in the UK. New Osmo fabrics provide weather protection and enhanced performance. As well as being 100% recycled, this fabric is more eco-friendly and 20% stronger than the previous version, with 4 x better water repellency and 3 x less stretch when wet. A tapered design saves weight without sacrificing liveable space, and a large porch area with NEMO’s new Landing Zone storage tub offers plenty of gear organisation and protection. The design also incorporates a generous sleeping area, with a central cross-pole for improved head height.

The idea of NEMO was born one turbulent night on the side of Mount Washington while Cam Brensinger spent a sleepless five hours in a poorly designed bivy. That night he realised how much opportunity there was for thoughtful design as part of the equation of enjoying adventure. And, coming down off the mountain the next day, he resolved to tackle that challenge. Three days after graduation from Rhode Island School of Design, he founded NEMO Equipment.
