Klymit makes one in insulated and non insulated

If you are cost conscious but want something reliable I’ve had a lot of success with Klymit - I have been using their xl for years without any problems. It doesn’t slosh around air when you move around so it stays super evenly inflated. And it actually packs down to a reasonable size without a ton of effort.

I ordered an Exped Deepsleep duo mat a few days ago on sale for 200 bucks. I hope its somewhat comparable to the Megamat. I couldn't justify spending 400 bucks on a sleeping pad rn but I needed one for our valentines weekend camping trip. I had to return my previous mat (klymaloft double) cuz it wouldn't stay inflated even after patching a leak. :/

We use a Klymit double pad and then I buy a full size egg crate topper (2-3 inches thick) to put on top (you can cut it to fit a little closer to size if you need to). Then I buy a full size sheet to put on top to hold them together. We backpack, we have a rooftop tent, and we’ve owned many types of pads to sleep on and this is our favorite. I also have an extra in case people come to visit (we live near Yellowstone and the Tetons) and everyone we’ve ever camped with and used this setup loved it. You can cover up with whatever suits you but that pad combo is super comfy (to us). It’s also very cost effective as well. Amazon usually has the klymit pad on sale for $120 ish (the blue one) and then the topper I got was like $40 I think.

My solo kit is pretty different from the kit that goes couples camping. We haven’t 2 up moto camped nor does my wife ride. But. We use a Klymit double sleeping pad with a Kelty double sleeping bag(20°). Both are pretty large together but I could totally see this set up split between two bikes doing fire roads. The Pad is self inflating plus you can put a decent amount of air in it. It’s like 3 inches thick I think. The sleeping bag is dope because it has these built in “sheets” on each side and you can completely remove the top cover part if you want. Keeps us both warm but if I get hot I can pull the sheet off of me or unzip my side and kick a foot out….we are both larger folks, I’m 6’1” and nearly 300lbs, my wife is an Amazon woman at 5’8”. This combo has been working for us for years in the car. Otherwise I solo and roll about like you except I hammock when I can, single tent otherwise. Can’t get into the full open bivy/tarp thing…..yet. I’ve done a decent amount of bikepacking once upon a time and kept it pretty minimal, the moto allows a tad more luxury lol.

The Exped MegaMat Duo is 41” but 4” in depth. I got the single LXW version to go on my cot. I used to sleep in a 2p tent & used a klymit double but air didn’t stay inflated but I stayed on it. Before that I used a single klymit & used to roll off the pad cause it was like 24” wide.

I know this is a bit unconventional...but long story short Ive been using a Klymit Klymaloft sleeping pad as my bed for over a year now. I love it! But recently its started losing air to the point where I have to blow it up again every night (and basically wake up on the floor.) So I think its time for a new one, I was going to purchase another but before I do that I'm curious if there are better options out there? Im 6'3 and would like the same size but am open to bigger options aswell. Thanks for your help!

When I say as a bed I mean I sleep on it literally every night
