BIG AGNES Copper Spur UL1 Bikepack 2026

Big Agnes Copper Spur UL1 Bikepack (2026)

The Copper Spur UL1 Bikepack  is upgraded ultralight bikepacking version of award-winning 3-season tent, which Big Agnes designed for on and off-road, two-wheeled travel. 

Thanks to its shortened pole segments (approx. 30 cm, 12'') and a total weight of around 1.3 kg, this tent is easy to transport and perfectly suited for mounting on handlebars or bike frames. The included waterproof dry bag-style stuff sack makes packing and attaching the tent to your bike simple and secure.

Constructed with advanced Hyperbead™ fabric, the tent delivers improved strength and waterproof performance while maintaining ultralight weight. HyperBead™ fabric is 6% lighter, 25% more waterproof and 50% stronger than traditional fabrics, without added water repellent chemicals. With a hydrostatic head of 1,500 mm for both the fly and floor, it provides reliable protection from rain and changing weather conditions throughout spring, summer, and autumn.

This tent also features vestibule style awning to enjoy your own chill space in the shade. 

Equipped with unique TipLok Tent Buckle for simplified setup, they've combined three functions: secure pole tip capture, rainfly attachment and tensioner and stakeout loop. This buckle has a keyed hole so the poletip locks securely into place during setup. Tent includes new 6'' Dirt Dagger UL tent stakes with orange anodized finish designed with patent pending I-beam aluminum construction. You'll notice the difference with a 25% increase in strength to weight ratio, lightest and strongest BA stakes ever. 

With a shortened 12'' Shortstick poleset, 4'' shorter than the standard pole length, you can stash these tents on the width of bike handles, panniers and saddlebags or simply saving space in any bag. Comes in a bikepacking specific water-resistant compression stuff sack to attach to the handlebars and is designed to withstand the rigors of trail travel.

With integrated daisy-chain webbing system also offers multiple bike-frame attachment options. All the features built for bikepacking are a common thread among these specialized bikepack tents like the added webbing for dry helmet storage located on the tent body exterior and daisy-chain webbing loops integrated on the fly exterior to dry out wet clothes and gear. 

Unique to Bikepack series of tents is extended footprint which creates a vestibule floor for dry, dirt free changing and additional gear storage. Footprint (sold separately) helps protect the floor of the tent from water, mud or sharp objects and extend the life of your tent floor. For those who want to travel light, the footprint enables to pitch a lightweight Fast Fly shelter only with the rainfly, the poles, and the footprint for a tarp style set-up that weighs only 879 g.
