Ultra is an ultra-light, compact bikepacking and backpacking tent for multi-day adventures on two wheels. Weighing less than a full bottle of water and packing small enough to sit between your handlebars, it’s your trail home from home.

Pack less. Ride further. Sleep better.

• 900g freestanding tent built for bikepacking and backpacking

• Carbon fibre pole system pitches anywhere, fast

• Side-entry porch keeps wet kit out of your sleep space

• Packs smaller than most jackets

For big miles, minimal faff
Ultra’s freestanding carbon pole system gives a solid pitch anywhere — mountain tops, gravel layby, rocky bothy, forest verge. The one-piece hub design sets up fast, and the asymmetrical shape gives more space where you need it, with room to sit up inside.

Pitch inner-only for summer night stargazing. Add the ultralight silicone-coated fly for greater protection. A side-entry porch stows your kit and keeps mud out of your sleeping space. There’s stash pockets inside for tools and a hook for a small lamp.

Tried, tested and trail proven
"Used this for King Alfred’s Way — packs down to nothing, handled wind and rain no bother." – Ben P
"4-day tour: light, stable, dry. Exactly what I hoped for." – Adam
"After being eaten alive in a bivvy bag in Spain… this tent is the dream." – Andy S

Superlight, strong and storm-ready
We’ve built Ultra with high-spec materials that punch well above their weight. The 10D sil/sil ripstop nylon fly is 100% waterproof and naturally hydrophobic — shedding rain and resisting UV better than traditional PU coatings. Carbon fibre poles save grams without compromising strength. Mesh panels and a roof vent keep air flowing in muggy weather.

Lower impact, longer life
Ultra uses a silicone-only waterproof treatment that’s completely PFC-free. That means no harmful chemical runoff when your camp is close to the water. And because the fabrics resist hydrolysis and UV damage better than PU, Ultra’s built to last through seasons of hard riding and rough camps.

Designers notes:

"We've selected a super light 10d Nylon with a sil/sil treatment. Silicone is naturally hydrophobic and inert, meaning the Ultra is highly waterproof and longer lasting than traditional PU coatings - in part because silicone is more resistant to hydrolysis and UV degradation. In short, a tent that works harder and costs the planet less."
