Why We Like The Dragonfly Bikepack Tent
Between our days of ripping singletrack, we unpack the Dragonfly Bikepack Tent to lay out, rest up, and catch z's. The unobstrusive colors put us in stealth mode, and the large vestibule with new storage tub keeps gear organized. Increased tub height provides better weather protection so we can focus on recovering for tomorrow's ride.

Downgrade in quality
The new dragonfly bikepacking tent is a complete downgrade. This bag is made of cheaper material compared to the previous year. This recent model is comparable to a cheap polyster sleeping bag. Additionally, the fabric of the tent itself is almost paper thin. The footprint mat went from being optional to an absolute requirement with today's quality of the tent

Perfect for overnights and long multi-days
Have had this tent since early this year and absolutely love it after having spent about 20 nights in it so far. I've used it in Iceland, Kyrgyzstan, and stateside with a few overnights and a nearly two week long trip. Inevitably had a few nights of very heavy rain and high wind and it managed super well! I opted for the 2P since I'm 6'6" and prefer having the extra space, in bad weather the additional indoor space goes a long way in making early mornings more comfortable. Packability is very good too, I ended up putting it in a few different places on my bike depending on the length of trip. To my surprise the somewhat shorter poles did feel like they increased flexibility when packing my bike. Also worth mentioning how easy this tent is to set up, always just a few minutes even with the rainfly. When you’re exhausted this will be appreciated. So far very impressed, looking forward to more trips with this tent!

“Upgraded” from the older version: Big mistake!
I was so excited when the Osmo came out because I have the prior version of the Dragonfly Bikepack 2P tent and its only weakness was the rain fly. So I “upgraded” to the Osmo thinking I would get the same great quality tent with a better rain fly. Boy was I wrong. The only thing good about the OSMO is the rain fly. The quality of all the other materials is very poor. I’m very careful with my gear since I want it to last a long time, and never had any problems with the older model. After packing the OSMO for my first trip (3 weeks on the GDMBR), I was horrified to pull out the tent the first night and find several small holes in the mesh and upper tent material where (I presume) the plastic hooks abraded the material. Also, the one of the loops that hold the cargo tray on each side was seam sealed shut, so completely unusable. As my trip continued, I attempted to pack the tent differently in order to avoid the abrasions, but nothing worked. Nemo also got rid of the nice big pockets in the front sides of the tent, which I used a lot in the older version. I also had to be very careful about removing the poles from where they snap into the plastic hooks at the corners of the tent because the round tip of the pole would often pull out of the pole. Thankfully I bought this tent at REI and I will be returning it ASAP. I will be switching to a different brand now that the quality of the Nemo tent has become so poor.
