Pictured here is the new spacecamper, usually a business for converting vans and such into campers, for cargo bikes.
I'm kind of undecided on this. It feels very convenient, unless you have an ultralight tent the weight of your bike, and your supplies and the tent and the bags and whatnot seems sort of the same as this stuff.
What do we think about the concept? Cool idea to incorporate your bicycle into your sleeping arrangement for trips or dumb playtoy?
Ill go with: it’s a good idea. A cargo bike is a large piece of rigid structure that you don’t use while camped overnight, so why not incorporate it in a design?
using the bike or motorcycle to hold up the tent is good and has been done for a long time without needing expensive special stuff (you can do it with a tarp, some rope, and some pegs), i'm sure this thing will be useful but expensive
Guess I'll take the contrarian side here and say this looks like a nice rain fly for a bicycle and not something I'd want to sleep in. Poles are not make or break when it comes to weight and having a space with a floor where I can get situated without hitting my face on my mud-covered bike seems worth the slight additional encumbrance. If I was going for ultralight I'd use a camping hammock instead.
