Description
The Telos Bikepacking two-person freestanding tent will radically change your perception of what a bikepacking tent can be. Sea to Summit’s engineers took the award-winning Telos TR2, equipped it with a poleset with shorter pole segments, and designed function-specific storage sacks to mount on your bike.
At its heart, the Telos Bikepack remains the same great tent on which Backpacker Magazine bestowed their Editor’s Choice Award. Space, Ventilation and Versatility now ready for wherever your bike adventures take you.
Technical Features
The gold standard in tent poles — our tents combine DAC Featherlite NFL, NSL and PRESSFIT sections.
The poles of the Tension Ridge™ are swept upwards like the dihedral wing of an airplane – not angled downwards as is common in tents. This raises the tent’s shape, providing significantly more head and shoulder room, higher doors, easier access and more usable vestibule space.
Typical of Sea to Summit’s commitment to refining details to make gear frictionless and more functional, these machined aluminum clips make setting up the rainfly (either with the inner tent, or with a footprint in ultralight configuration) quick and easy. And they are far more durable than plastic buckles.
Every Sea to Summit tent packs up into three stuff sacks to allow you to split the load easily. During setup, two stuff sacks transform into gear storage pockets, while the pole stuff sack (with a translucent diffuser) becomes a Lightbar™. Add a headlamp or two for soft illumination throughout the tent.
Mounting Instructions
Correctly Mount Your Bikepacking Tent
The Telos Bikepack Drybag can be conveniently attached to multiple locations on a bicycle with the appropriate mounting hardware. Connecting any piece of equipment to a bicycle must be done correctly and with appropriate caution. The item of equipment may become detached and all or part of it might become entangled in any of the moving parts of the bicycle (wheels, drivetrain). This could result in damage to property or injury to the rider or other persons.

Frequently Asked questions
Why is the Telos heavier than other ultralight tents?
The Telos tent is made with durable materials, offers more internal space, and has better ventilation than competing tents. For weight-conscious hikers, the Alto shaves off a few ounces for easy carry.
What are the differences between regular and plus models?
The Telos Plus tent has a nylon inside fabric with unzippable vents rather than mesh to keep cold air from getting into the inner tent. The Plus model also features a more waterproof floor (4000mm vs 2500mm).
Is a footprint necessary with this tent?
The Telos has a relatively waterproof (2500mm) floor, so can be used in pretty wet (but not downright boggy) conditions without a footprint. However, adding a footprint does help protect the floor from rips and tears.
