What is the Hubba Hubba 2 Bikepacking Tent?
Modelled from the classic MSR Hubba Hubba tent, this bikepacking-special provides all the functionality you need for multi-day biking trips with your partner in crime. Featuring cycle-specific details, it offers ample shelter for three seasons and has a super lightweight, compact design.
What is it made of?
Flysheet: The flysheet is made from a rugged yet lightweight 20D ripstop nylon with MSR's DuraShield™ polyurethane coating and an additional silicone coating to create complete waterproof protection, with a hydrostatic head of 1200mm.
Canopy: A combination of 10D micromesh and 20D ripstop nylon with a C0 DWR (durable water repellent) creates the canopy, ensuring ample ventilation and breathability for humid nights by the trail. Though lightweight, these materials are still strong enough to survive years worth of wild camps and help to keep weight to a minimum.
Floor: Similar to the flysheet, the base is made with 20D ripstop nylon, with Durashield™ PU coating and a C0 DWR for extra reinforcement, ensuring that even on wet ground, you won't be left with a soggy bottom, as Mary Berry would say...
Poles: Two shorter DAC NSL poles are included with the tent for stable pitching and security. These poles are super lightweight and, once in the stuffsack, integrate seamlessly with virtually any handlebar set-up without taking excessive space.
What are its features?
This tent is suitable for two people and provides ample room with minimal weight and pack size. If you wanted to be really savvy on the packing, you could even split the poles and flysheet between you and carry half each.
MSR fans will be glad to know that this exciting addition to the Hubba Hubba family keeps the classic rectangular floor shape, providing exceptional living space, extra headroom and a larger vestibule to store your biking gear. The interior peak height is 1.07cm, and the length is approximately 2.13m, which is certainly enough to accommodate taller users, too!
Large gear lofts and two clotheslines (inside and out) make this tent the perfect home away from home for longer trips, and the combination of the strong poles, DuraShield™ flysheet and floor and mesh inner prove ideal for frequent use, even in the odd storm.
The Hubba Hubba 2 Bikepacking tent is best suited to three-season use, meaning you'll be able to bag plenty of adventures throughout most of the year. To protect your new investment, we'd also recommend purchasing a Hubba Hubba 2 Bikepacking footprint.
