Big Agnes Copper Spur HV UL1 Bikepacking Tent
LEVEL UP YOUR RIDE WITH THE COPPER SPUR HV UL BIKEPACK TENT
The Copper Spur HV UL Bikepack tent is an award-winning, ultralight bike-packing tent designed for on and off-road adventures. With a trail weight of 1050g and a packed weight of 1280g, this 3-season, 1-person tent features a double-wall design, 1 door, and 1 porch. The tent is newly redesigned with more interior volume, utilising stronger, lighter, and more sustainably sourced fabrics. It's equipped with features you need for two-wheeled travel, such as the awning-style vestibule and the proprietary TipLok Tent Buckle™ for easy setup.
ENVIRONMENTAL BENEFITS OF SOLUTION-DYED TENTS
This tent boasts a 50% reduction in water required, saving nearly 19 litres of water per tent on some models, an 80% reduction in energy required, significantly reducing carbon emissions, and 80% fewer chemicals used, creating a cleaner and safer dyeing and finishing process.
Big Agnes, the manufacturer, is the first to introduce solution-dyed tent body and fly fabrics to the equipment category, resulting in a product that is better for the environment. The high UV resistance of the solution-dyed fabrics also improves the quality of the tent. Improving already great tents isn’t easy, but Big Agnes has chosen to lessen the environmental impact while doing so.

REVIEWS
"The standout feature for the Copper Spur is its double “Y” pole design that allows it to be the only tent in the Bikepack series that’s completely freestanding, a feature cherished by many bike travellers. It’s also the most roomy for the same reason."
"One of my favourite the highlights are the 3D Bin, which really does make use of what usually is unused space. I also appreciate just how much headroom is available, as well as so many little features that sometimes are missing from ultralight offerings (the multiple gear pockets inside, the daisy chain webbing to dry items on the outside of the tent fly, etc)." -
WHAT WE THINK
Designed specifically for the rigors of bikepacking, this tent offers an ideal blend of compactness, comfort, and weather protection, making it a great choice for anyone who wants a high-performing shelter that doesn’t weigh down their gear.
One of the standout features of the Copper Spur HV UL1 Bikepacking Tent is its High Volume design, which maximises interior space and provides extra headroom. While it’s designed for one person, the extra space inside makes it feel more comfortable than many other solo tents, giving you room to move around and store gear. The bikepacking version of the tent is designed with bike-specific features, such as smaller packing size and optimised setup for bike travellers, making it easy to transport and pitch quickly after a long day of cycling.
Overall, we’ve been really impressed with the Copper Spur HV UL1 Bikepacking Tent. It’s a solid choice for solo bikepackers who want a lightweight, easy-to-pitch tent that doesn’t skimp on comfort. With its spacious interior, dual vestibules, and reliable weather protection, it’s a perfect companion for 3-season adventures. If you’re looking for a tent that will hold up to the demands of bikepacking but still give you the comfort and space you need, this one’s hard to beat. -
