Onetigris Tetra 160 - A lightweight tent made for adventures - Overnight camp and review

[@kayakangler7683]

Best review on this tent on KZbin. Well done! Plus it sounds like Ricky Gervais doing the review. :) You covered all the key information, and I like that you showed that a chair fits inside in case of inclement weather. The footprint looks like a great fit for this tent, too.

@@kayakangler7683 thanks - it’s a great tent and I’m very happy with the setup, all works very well together, regards Ricky… 👍😂🥸

Tent looks great, what a lovely sopt to camp too. Man and bike- heaven.

I absolutely love our teepee tent! As we travel as a couple we use the Wickiup 4. It's big and it's only 2.5 KG, which is incredible for such a huge tent :) We have had heavy rains, strong winds and it holds up no problem. The loop at the top on our tent we use to attach the tarp if needed, other than that it could be used to hang the tent up in a forrest and it could be pitched without a pole. I have to say that the Wickiup tents are not cheap and I was looking out for a used one for a very long time ;) Reduce-Reuse-Recycle :D Enjoy your trips with the new tent! ☘Diana

@@talesfromthebike had the wickiup 4 on my eBay watch list for about 2 years and not had a sniff, very impressed with the Onetigris so far tho, nice tent 👍

[@talesfromthebike]

@@twowheeledadventuresuk2739 that is approximately the time I had it in my watchlist on the German eBay site as well, and one day it popped up and I did not hesitate 😂 unfortunately the onetigres was too small for us. I think I checked all alternative options including the Pomoly Stovehut. (Without the stove 😂) Looked great too but again too small 🫣

Thank you for the introduction to the OneTigris Tetra 160 looks like it could be my next tent. Loved the look of that site, great video. Awesome bike btw!!

[@ColSnders]

Liked your attention to detail in the Tetra 160 tent review. But mostly appreciated your laid back approach to motocamping in general. Shows you don't need to carry a masses of complicated kit to have a good overnight camping experience. Cheers

[@johngarrity7777]

Best tent review Ive seen yet! Kudos mate- I shall go and buy one- looks perfect for my moto camping adventures! 👍🏍🏍👍

[@thepab3072]

After a 4 night camping trip I must say that the OneTigris Cosmitto 2 is a pain to get out of. I think I'm going to buy a Tetra 160 next year and try it out. If I like it more I'll give my Cosmitto 2 to a friend 😂 I see why you chose the Tetra 160, after my little adventure I really want something taller

[@thepab3072]

Also the OneTigris Cosmito 2 is ideal for moto camping. I have it and love the tent, I would love to own the Tetra 160 next. Also the Solo Homestead TC black v2 for car camping. OneTigris don't cost a lot, great quality and they are unique.

Loving your videos mate. Given me a few ideas and now I want a "Summer" tent. Trying to find the balance of camping with comforts and not taking too much s@#t is a constant battle haha.

[@twowheeledadventuresuk2739]

Defo, and for a quick weekend blast you don't need the world, just a few essentials and beer tokens!

[@jamesbell5354]

I have this tent. I have the newer version with the guy rope in the back of the tent. I’m pretty sure I have the second version and you have the first version with the updated color scheme. Regardless, it’s an amazing tent for at least 3 seasons.

[@thelanehunterdevon1664]

Cool

[@yetiibob8407]

I think if I owned that tent I would look at making the main support pole into an A frame so as not to restrict getting in and out. Good vid tho

[@twowheeledadventuresuk2739]

@@yetiibob8407 I can’t say it bothered me, but I get the point 👍

[@shabingly]

Well, not a bike rider so keep that in mind and ignore me if desired 😂 When I backpack (50% of my camping), the things I care about (in decreasing order of importance): weight, quality, pack size, interior size (tbh, this is really just headroom when laid down: I'm 6'2", no backpacking tent is ever gonna be a palace for me) and lastly materials. For car camping, if it fits in the car then jobs a good 'un. One of our car camping tents (yes, I own multiple tents, I have a problem) weighs 25kg and my wife can get in the bag for it lol.

[@shabingly]

You'd be surprised how good a mid is in bad weather, too. I've a similar tent (alpkit tarpstar) and been in it in fairly high winds and it was stable as owt. And no guys.

[@twowheeledadventuresuk2739]

@@shabingly Yeah if I had the money I'd get a Back Wickiup 4, they are meant to be bombproof in bad weather. Weight used to be more important but there is a limit - you could take a really light bivvy bag, 500g, dead easy to set up, beat any wind, but they are utterly useless in bad weather and rain when you need to cook, or charge your GoPros and nav devices etc etc etc. I have a Vango Helium 2, great 2 man tent, even better for 1, only 1.4kg, packs down tiny, excellent quality, but shite to live in and do stuff if it's pissing it down - and If I get to a camp site say at 5pm and its raining I don't want to spend the rest of the evening laying down to do stuff, much sooner be in a chair, reading the news, cooking, eating, relaxing... I do have quite a few tents, for various scenarios, and tents are like shoes, no one pair suits all occasions!

[@shabingly]

@@twowheeledadventuresuk2739 thankfully I don't have the personality for KZbin so I don't have to lug about filming gear etc, and tend to be so knackered after walking I'm tent-bound as soon as it's pitched anyway 😂 Have a gander at a liteway scout: it's basically a golite shangrila (they went out of business, people swore by em so someone asked the owner of liteway if they could replicate it). In silpoly, deffo not 900 quid 😂 I keep thinking about it in Ultra, but it's pole-height would mean either strapping two hiking poles together or carrying a carbon pole (and losing height adjustability). I have an liteway illusion solo I absolutely love when out on my tod, pretty much use that all the time now.

[@twowheeledadventuresuk2739]

@@shabingly I’m not doing much on foot these days, just sold my MSR Access 1, lord knows how used to survive in that with the dog in winter on the mountain. Don’t think liteway are available in the UK

[@shabingly]

@@twowheeledadventuresuk2739 yeah I can imagine that was a tight fit. I nearly got one of those and decided I didn't really need a 4th season tent. Liteway do ship to over here, can't remember what I paid in postage. Small firm though, you can't buy em at a retailer. Actually, if anyone reading this is tempted: as of 2024 they suggest us UK folk pay in UKR Hryvnia, as there's potential your UK bank charges you to convert to Euro and then again to convert to HRV even if you tell their store to charge Euro only. I honestly have nowt bad to say about em tbh, had several emails chats with the guy who owns it. Seems a genuinely nice dude. Quality product, too.

If you had to choose between the Tetra or Vango xenon from a ventilation and condensation point of view which one would it be? Your opinion would be greatly appreciated.

I haven't cooked/lived in the Tetra when it's colder yet, but guessing that's gonna be better condensation wise because it has good venting

Sorry, forgot to ask, is pack size without poles similar or bigger as I have same bags bought on your recommendation, all good so far! Thanks
