Fly Creek HV UL1 Solution Dye

Not bikepacking specific but my Big Agnes fly creek Ultralight 1 tent is a slapper for both bike packing and distance hiking

Big Agnes Fly Creek 1, it's a very small tent though with a front entry. Some people don't like that but I don't mind.

In addition to the durston tents as already suggested (I have the x mid and while its very light because it’s a trekking pole tent, the fabric feels quite durable), I want to suggest the marmot tungsten 1 person tent. Less than 4lbs, durable, comfortable, less than $300. It’s the first backpacking tent I bought and it’s still the one I reach for on shorter trips where I’m not worried about weight. It’s so easy to set up, stays stable in wind and rain, and fits it pretty small spots without feeling claustrophobic inside. Others have suggested big Agnes — while I love the big Agnes fly creek 1p I have I would not describe it as very durable. I do a lot more patching of holes on that tent than the other two I mentioned. Still a great tent and I’m not getting rid of it anytime soon, but I don’t think it’s what you are looking for.

Yes!!! I’ve ended up using the footprint with my Big Agnes instead because it’s so delicate and the tungsten has been totally fine without it

I used a Big Agnes Fly Creek 1 person tent most recently.

I sold my bivvy after a pretty miserable experience in the UP in some hot and humid conditions last summer. Used a single person Big Agnes tent in hot and humid conditions in PR recently. Much better camping experience. Worth the extra pound and packability issues IMO.

I have the HVUL1 for mainly canoe camping in Ontario and backcountry hiking. I use the included footprint most of the time but even without, I’ve not had any durability concerns. Obviously check the group for sharp rocks and stuff before you pitch. I’ve had to tape the bug netting because my eyeglasses have a sharp corner that caught and ripped it. I’ve broken a zipper before pulling way too hard on the main rain fly zip. That said, it’s ideal for me and I don’t have any concerns about durability. It’s a tool that will experience regular wear and tear. I like double wall and don’t have the budget yet for dyneema. One note- if you can get an old model of the copper spur, before the new HyperBead fabric, I’d try for that. Anecdotes say the removal of PFAS makes the new material less effective, but I’m unsure myself.
