MSR Hubba Hubba Bikepack 2. very Compact and light, stealthy(dark Green Color) and Comes in its own handlebar bag. I am 100% convinced of it :)

Hey dude I was in the same boat as you last month, went for the Hubba Hubba bikepack 2, I've used it a lot already in various weather, it's survived a fair amount of wind and rain and while probably isn't the lightest, I use it a lot for wild camping and me and my friends are all 6'6 and I don't like to be cramped. It blends in pretty well to environments and has decent features to make wild camping easy, you can pitch it fly first with no mods by just rolling the fly and inner together in your bag, takes more skill but when it isn't raining you can pitch in 2 minutes It's a really good tent, I was really sceptical of it's rain resistance because I've been caught out a lot of times in a poor tent for the weather. Since buying the tent, I've got a lot more faith that despite the low HH and thickness, because it's so taut, water just runs off. My friend has the 3 man version and I've seen it survive serious storms. Get the footprint and do it all properly and it's more than enough for UK weather, Also if you want any advice let me know, my friend and I are doing a long bikepack soon and last month concluded our tent research and purchases

I have an X Mid Dome 2 freestander: https://durstongear.com/products/x-dome-2-ultralight-tent It’s much pricier at $470 but weighs only 2.7 pounds. One great feature is after the first time setup, you can keep the fly and tent connected and pitch it all at once quite easily. I had a Hubba Hubba 2 person (much heavier, a little bit cheaper) and used it a lot. I keep thinking about a 1 person or the X Mid Dome 1+ but in the end I keep coming back to loving the room to stretch out (esp nice if you have to hunker down in bad weather).

I will second this. When I’m using a trekking pole tent, the x-mid 1 is my go to. I use both a free standing Hubba hubba 2 (love that tent) and an x-mid 1 for backpacking. The choice depends on the terrain primarily and a little bit on weather.

I’ve had the hubba hubba 2 person tent for 5 years and it is still in perfect shape and waterproof. I use it often (at least 20-30 set ups per year) on top of that I’ve been backpacking South America with this tent for the last 3 months now and no issues at all still. Lightweight, reliable and a decent price

I have an older Hubba Hubba, but I bought the knock-off Naturehike Mongars for my kids. It has worked out pretty well. The Mongars are not as feature rich as mine, but they are a fraction of the price and are sturdier. The fabric would probably hold up well with a dog going in and out and the basin does fit two side by side 25inch mattresses - so plenty of room. If you are someplace where it gets hot, the inner is mostly mesh - so breathes well. Bonus points for being able to pitch outer first using the ground cloth for initial structure when you find yourself in the rain.
