Great little insight to a great light tent, tho at 63 yrs young, I do like my comforts whilst travelling on my bike these days 😂
At 63 and still riding, I think you've earned a comfortable hotel stay 😜
@@SaffySprocket thank you 😂😂🏍🏍
Thanks Saffy, I’ve been looking at these tents for ages. Really appreciate the video. You are a Star!!
Thanks for the video saffy, just so you are aware the helicopter poles as you call them are supposed to sit on the top 😊 gives you a little more room inside and stops the plastic mounts from breaking 😊
OooOooOooh that makes sense😂😅😅😅😅😅
Excellent review, Saffy. It’s always very helpful to be able to watch a full demonstration video of a tent along with its pros and cons when considering which tent to purchase next. Many thanks for sharing your video 😊👍
Great demo on the tent! The fact that you actually use it adds a level of credibility. That hip pack you use is bad ass too I need to find one looks like a great spot to carry bank cards and maps or whatever you need handy. Also you have a Palm tree in your backyard! Nice.
amzn.to/45seDSv this is the hip bag I use 🥰
@@SaffySprocket Ordered! Thanks from your Seattle Spocketeer!
Love it. Learnt a new word...helicoptery. Long may you reign, Saffy. Have a great summer.
😂
They are great tents, of very high quality and I've always admired them, but here in Canada it would be around $1000 to get one to my door, so I just can't justify that much investment, especially when most trips I do I stay in motels now. I'm still using my 2 man tent I got from Amazon for 45 bucks around 8 years ago and it still serves me well and holds strong. Packs down much smaller than the big lone rider tent too.
Great review Saffy 😊 It definitely got put through it's paces on your Euro trip. Inner pitch first tents are usually roomier inside and far less noisy in the wind, I think it out weighs the downside of pitching in the rain. Nothing that a microfiber cloth can't resolve. 😊
True! I did get a few speckles in the rain but a lot less than I anticipated
You can actually pitch the fly first then fit the inner, very easy to do ,
When Saffy Sprocket says that you can not go wrong ..WELL THAT IS A GUARANTEE..of DOABILITY .❤❤❤💯 💟💟🙏🙏🐼
When it's Sprocket proof, you can be sure it's indestructible 😂
@@SaffySprocket 🙏🙏🙏💯💯💯💟💟🤓🤓👍
The packed size is HUGE!! I use a 3x3 metre tarp and Bivy. A fraction of the size ..
When away for a long duration. A proper enclosed tent is vital. I carry both. Tarp. & bivvy bag, but also a tent. The tent is to allow you to administrate in poor weather. And keep the mossies off. Both have their uses.
I couldn't imagine camping in the Polish snow in a bivvy ❄️☃️
@Saffy Sprocket I carry a tarp and bivvy. But like you say, in some scenarios, a tent is vital.
You put it away wet three months ago and it’s not absolutely ruined with mould that’s miracle never put tents away wet always dry the ten
I'm was just as shocked, my old fabric luggage bags were mouldy 😂
Good review. Love the exact description how to set it up. Lots of Love G
Thank you so much 🥰🥰🥰
Now that is one lovely lush lawn
It's even taller now 😂
I have a one person mummy tent. It works well enough. Also just noticed your Scottish flag on the bike. Funny I also have the Scottish flag on one of my panniers (the Red Cross of St. George on the other)...that is my heritage. I love motorcycle camping; have a '72 Triumph Tiger (one kick!). Great to see more ladies getting into motorcycling...and why not. Thanks for the video.
Great video Saffy I'm now looking forward to your next adventure, IOM in the pipeline maybe
😁 watch this space 🚀
I like but bit heavy for my liking. I went with a naturehike cloud up3 n an oex tarp. (Loads of room for me and Flossy😊)
What do you do in snow ❄️🥶🥶🥶
@@SaffySprocket Cuddle Flossy tightly. Joke! Only just passed test so my first trip is fair weather stuff.
So not planned for winter trips, well I'll ride down to Southern Spain😂
Well done Saffy going to look at this tent now !!
I really love it 🥰
Bet you had a flashback from your adventure last year when you crawled back into the tent and also that you suddenly realized that there has to be another one very soon. Great tent with lots of great features and a great review from you who has really tried it in real life (the proof of the pudding is in the eating). A bit small for me I think. I mean drying out gear after riding in the rain for a whole day and still raining at camp. And also when staying more than one night in one place. I intend to try a somewhat cheap tipi tent on a 6-8 week summer trip in my country (Norway) this summer on my cruiser bike (mostly wild camping, maybe seek "emergency shelter" indoors in really stormy weather). And guess what: It has only one single pole, or even none if you can hang the top in a rope from a tree. I even have a small titanium wood stove for the tent and the tent has a stove jack for the stove's chimney. Not sure if I will take the stove with me even if it weighs less than 1 kg. It would have been nice for drying out wet gear, so maybe.
Thanks for the review Saffy, I'm looking for good tent for the nc500 next year, looks perfect and a reasonable size 👍
you don't. You want a tent that puts the outer up first. Period. You'll thank me when it's pouring and you want to keep dry. A good umbrella tent is best. Kyham ? You don't have to worry about weight on a motorcycle. You want space, fast pitching and easy cover.
You CAN put up the outer first - Lone Rider do a short instructional vid on just that 🙃
Thanks for the advise I'll bare it in mind when I buy a new tent. Cheers
As a non tent/camping guy, any tent which appear to be a puzzle game would totally put me off, I'd want something which goes up quickly and simply, without a lot of messing around
Thank you saffy for the video, I was thinking of getting one but definitely will now 🙂
Great video Saffy
That is the nicer of the two LoneRider tents, the other one has had too many issues with the doorway and being ripped by the wind etc...
Cost wise though, it is a ridiculous price for what it is, and that goes for the other tent as well, I have 6 tents, all for different purposes mind you, and I use to sell tents such as Terra Nova, TNF, Vango, Berghaus etc for expeditions, so I like to think I know what I am talking about when it comes to tents.
Great tent for touring on a motorbikes, the Vango Mirage Pro 200, as it is free standing, 3x poles, it all goes up in one go if you have the inner already connected to the outer sheet, and throw on a Vango Gear Store on the front and it has massive room, like for like and similar to the Vango Galaxy 300 which has become a motorcyclist favourite go to for a tent on a good price and great quality, as you can stand up in the front porch to change gear etc.
As a motorcyclist you are not required to have a triangle in Europe, this is only for cars, you are only required to have a hi-vis
Evening Ms Sprocket. Cleaning MC gear seems to be a theme in your last few vids. Getting ready for a summer adventure are we by any chance? My uncle gave me an old army tent back in the day. No ground sheet! Everything got wet, bottoms included🤣🤣🤣. Now I'm almost 70 years young, a hotel is my choice, even if I do end up sleeping on the floor 🤷♂️. Safe enjoyable riding till next time girl 👍😊.
Nice review both the pros. and cons. Setting the thing up after dark looks like something to be avoided. Just one thing if you put the tent away wet, you were lucky not to have mould a d mildew every where you should have dried it when you got it home .
Have the large Lone Rider tent that packs up not much bigger and is twice the size of that. Feel for a small tent it packs up to big.
No way, I have the big tent and it packs up like 4x the size
Hi Saffy very good informative video you have made and if possible can you do a video on different types of Tents with all safety equipments etc
Looks like a good tent but comes with a reasonably high price tag, so you would expect good quality. As I'm unlikely to be touring Europe anytime soon, I'll be just using a very basic two man tent. I do need to set it up and make sure all the poles are there ready for the ABR festival.
Lovely stuff. Cheers!
🥰
Bought one late last year but not had a chance to use yet.
I really like it! Easy to throw on the bike
Little tip for you when setting up in the dark.
Buy 4 small glow in the dark zipper pulls in two different colours.
Add one of each colour to each of the inner tent doors and another of each colour to the corresponding outer fly doors for each entrance.
Then in the dark, you just match the zipper pull colours together and you know you have it orientated the correct way.
Lone Rider do a short instructional video on setting up the outer tent first (for when it's raining) - seems fairly straight forward 🤷🏻♂️
Traveling alone I use a waterproof sleeping bag and a small tarp over me and the bike. Takes little room and one minute to set up
What do you do in snow 😰😰😰😰
@@SaffySprocket stay at home☺
@@adrianrouse5148 hahahaha
Edit/ still rather you than me tarping, even in summer.
@@shabingly I bought a breathable waterproof sleeping bag years ago. It has a inflatable thin mattress sewn in. . It's warm dry and quite comfortable. The tarp has eyes for a bungee cord on the bike and three tent pegs on the floor. It's small and light and fast to put up even in the dark. . I am using it less these days but as a youngster it's been set up in many places. For a simple nights sleep it's good.
Great review. Though ur abnormally long grass was triggering my add, cut it, its to long, its freaking me out lol😂
😂😂😂 you see should it now, it's 50x worse
Apparently if it is raining you can erect the fly first and then the inner keeping everything dry.
Not if you're an idiot like me 😅😭😅😭😅
@@SaffySprocket You are no idiot, maybe a wee bit loopy, but that is cool .
Cracking bit of kit 👍🏻
LoneRider is the best!
Great video Saffy :)
Thank you so much 😊
خيمة رائعة بزواياها .. 4:29 لا تقولي تلك الكلمة!! فهي غير لائقة من فمك ❤👍لأن محتواك جميل أو كما تريدي 👌شكرا
Hiya Saffy, what was the name of the straps you use for securing your gear to the bike? You said the name but couldn't make out what you said.. cheers...
Andy Straps :-) they're Australian 🦘🌏
Many comments here simply miss the point.
I must point out. That the cross poles MUST be fitted OVER the main ridges. Above. This is stated in the Instructions.
I've been looking at the 3 seconds tent, anyone have any experience with them?
Nice one Saffy 🙂
Thank you so much 😊
Did you find the tent was supplied with enough pegs? My MSR Elixr while brilliant, only has the minimum number so I ended up nicking several from my old one that something nibbled at in the shed.
Yes and no 😂 I break and lose my pegs 😂 I have them on subscription at this point
@@SaffySprocket 😊
0:54 👍
GREAT tent EXCEPT the sleeping area is much too small. Redverz tent is a bit bigger. Lone Rider needs to do something half way between their moto tent and their MOTO HOUSE…..with lighter material.
A point on marketing wank: the aerospace industry has found a good use for nearly every grade of aluminium in existence. In fact, the bulk of those were invented for and by the aerospace industry. From the toughest, strongest structural alloys, to the softest and flimsiest, there's a use for it on an aircraft, therefore it's "aircraft grade". That is to say, the term "aircraft grade aluminium" is so broad and vague as to be completely meaningless.
It's worse even than "mil spec", which is the LOWEST standard to which something ought to be built. But at least it IS a minimum standard. "Aircraft grade" isn't even that.
I love a good fun fact 😂 I'll remember that when I use random mental things now. YOU SEE THIS SPOON, AIRCRAFT METAL
I became a Patreon 2 weeks ago and sent you a message. Love your content and am a big fan.
Thank you so much! Been a little jetlagged last week after I got back to the UK ☠️ still playing catch up!
2:25 🤣👍
I love your boring videos ❤❤❤❤
👍good job.
Saffy ❤ nice one
Thank you so much 🥰
That is massive, and heavy for what it is. My Big Agnes 3 person Tiger Wall tent is larger when put up, and packs to 1/4th the size of that tent, it's also 3lbs lighter, and about the same price. Yeah no thanks.
Think you missed the point here.
This ADV tent is smaller, basically for one rider and his equipment. Doesn't need to be any bigger.
The weight also is a compromise between durability and longevity. The clue is in the name. ADVENTURE. Its robust. And will outlast many other tents.
Dont take it personal. Your tent is great.
@onahi2002 didn't miss anything, it's advertised as small, lightweight, durable. It's one of three. Much better options available.
@@MeerkatADV Small, lightweight and durable. It is. Depending obviously on what you are comparing it with. For me, Who has been riding GS motorcycles around the planet since 1999, They have hit the nail on the head. Yes there are smaller and lighter tents. But for Motorcycle use, its perfect. Each to their own.
@@onahi2002 Packed size is larger than 90% of other comparable tents, hell it's bigger than tents which are significantly larger when assembled. Packed weight is also more than 90% of comparable options. The reality is Lone Rider pays for good reviews as a way to get their tent to be "viral" for ADV bikers, when really most riders would be better off with a backpacking tent or bikepacking tent.
@Meerkat ADV I used a tera nova voyager for over 25 years. That's an expensive performance tent. But bigger due to the pole length. And much smaller than the ADV tent.
We use what works for us. Quite often thermoset and rab ascent 9 next to the bike with a bivvie bag
Cost?
Do you still have your first tent, the one your bike went in?
Yes!!!
Pricy but good tent nice video x
I love the tent ⛺
Ok 👍👌
🥰
Why do I have 2 tents 🤣🤣 ive got 7 🤦🏻♂️
😂🤩
Hi fyi re warning triangle its Not a legal requirement in France as you stated or Germany onxa Motorcycle in a Car it is a Legal Requirement
❤️🔥🥰👋👍👍👍 a romantic room for 2 , with a great view
I don't think the bike fits in this one 😂😜
@@SaffySprocket 😂🥰🤣😂
How about a lone rider lawn mower😂😂😂
😂😂😂
there is a biker tent, hm, i use most times a 3 to 5 star hotel, with shower, parking spot and breakfast included....
dont do camping since i left the army...over 30 years ago!
try to speak a little bit slower, most people outside the UK are not British....
so they tent to understand other languages much better...
Ahaha I think most British people also find it hard to understand me 😂 I get a bit excited sometimes and talk even faster!
14:29 why do you ONLY have two tents?
Thats some rookie numbers
😅😭😅😭😅👈
@@SaffySprocket I'd be very impressed to see you use a tarp and bivy. Just don't do it near water or in Scotland lol.
Some of us aren’t as high up on the property ladder. I only have the one tent. 😢😢😢 and as I am a billy no mates it’s a 1 berth tent at that😂😂😂😂
@@craigyllyn you're definitely not Billy no mates, you're Billy lives too far away lol. If you came to Devon I'd go camping (and green Laning) with you. 👍
@@CuriousGoose 😊😊😊😊😊 yeah it’s miles away from most people I know 😀 that’s so nice of you to say . I did find travelling “ darn sarf ” less hassle than I expected so watch this space . 😉😉😉😉
I just use a pop up tent i'm Lazy. 😂
DO NOT erect this tent the way it is done in this video. You risk potential failure of the tent poles if you do. The cross poles MUST go on top of the lengthwise pole . If you don’t you risk breaking the plastic clips that hold the cross supports which will make the tent very difficult to use.
I learnt something new 😂 although to be fair, I used it for a whole issue this way with no problems
@@SaffySprocket It is actually clearly stated in the instructions. I agree that it is probably not something critical in most situations but you get a windy wet night and have one of those plastic clips break and the whole structure of the tent is compromised.
Ha ha .Actually you can go wrong setting your tent poles and you did it 😂.The top two short ones go on top of the bigger center pole and that is because you dont want to put stress on that clear plastic pole connectors.
Your bush needs a trim.....
😂
@@SaffySprocket Mrs Boulder tells me I really need to re-word that message....
👍👋
🥰🥰🥰
That tent is big and heavy. 🙂
Naaaaaaah ahahahah
That grass needs cutting 😅
😂
Oh, ok. You meant literally. Lol!
@@ehdiwowin8412 😱🤪🤣
It’s no mow May 🤪😊👍
Slummit Gobi up in seconds no faff.
I am all about faff
Looks pretty pricey
So, it's 12 pounds, no bed roll, and costs $500... < 3 cons that I could NEVER get over.
You do know what you're doing is illegal? Looking at your garden, wild camping is not legal. Unless you're in Scotland. 😜😑😂
😭😂 stoooooppppppppppp
Sorry. Can't help it. May have had some wine. Yes early. But my sense of humour is generally off the wall. Only in fun. Expect more. Do enjoy your (and others) videos.
Has anyone ever seen one of these tent erected with anything approaching tautness? Whenever I see it on TH-cam the fly is as slack as a very slack thing. Also it’s overpriced. Plenty of just as good/better tents out there for a lot less cash. An exercise in marketing for the gullible.
I have no idea what you're asking 😅😅😅😅
Over complicated and far too long till your sleeping area is covered from the rain.
I thought that in the rain its game over
They do have a video showing it can be put up rain fly first in bad weather
I camped in this a lot in the rain, never had a single issue to be fair, I had more of an issue with the bigger tent dragging the rain in with my muddy boots
Overkill.
I am overkill 😂 have you not seen my packing videos
@@SaffySprocket Hey! It's all good. It's not about the destination, but about the journey, eh!?
This time of year you can easily get away with a hammock and tarp. My hammock it's the size of a regular cup, weighs less then a bag of sugar and cost me £30. Just a suggestion!
Enjoy the videos though! Good to see more females enjoying 2 wheels too!
at £370 its like all Lone Rider gear... Rip OFF and totally overpriced! No wonder they are now known as Lone-Robber
Overpriced tat.........
I disagree 😅 I've saved a lot of money with my tent
$500 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂Fk NO
Top grab handle isn't a handle, it's a dry bag roll top. Tent is a stupid idea for moto-camping, far too big and heavy packed with not enough room when up. Inner first is no good in bad weather. Naturehike Cloud/MSR Elixir are my go to backpack /wildcamp/moto camping. Both fit in a rucksack. Why would you buy one of these??
I didn't have any issues with the tent in bad weather, I love it! It was really really really good in snow too
