This versus That: Dragonfly OSMO versus Dragonfly Bikepack OSMO

Although the Dragonfly OSMO and the Dragonfly Bikepack OSMO look relatively identical and have similar dimensions and materials, the Bikepack differs with features tailored specifically for bikepacking. Read below for more details to learn more:

Key Differences:

• Packed Size and Pole Length:
  • The Bikepack is designed for more compact storage, crucial for fitting into bikepacking bags or being strapped to your bike's handlebars. This is achieved by shorter pole segments, allowing the tent to pack down significantly smaller. The standard Dragonfly OSMO, while still packable, does pack larger with longer segments
• Stuff Sack:
  • The Dragonfly Bikepack OSMO comes with a waterproof stuff sack specifically designed for bikepacking, with a roll-top closures, anti-chafing protection, and attachment points for securing it to a bike. The Dragonfly has a standard water resistant roll top stuff sack.
• Feature Tweaks:
  • There are a couple features that are for bikepacking needs:
    • There is a daisy chain stitch on the topside of the body to allow hanging of sweaty/wet/dirty clothing.
    • Our trademark Landing Zone™ waterproof storage tub is included with every bikepack.
• Intended Use:
  • The Dragonfly OSMO is designed for general backpacking, where pack size is a concern, but not to the same extreme as bikepacking.
  • The Dragonfly Bikepack OSMO is specifically optimized for bikepacking, where minimizing packed size is paramount.

In short, both tents are the same, but the bikepack can be used in either a backpacking or bikepacking scenario.
