Static V Lite
Klymit Static V Lite Review
Tested and reviewed for bikepacking use
The Static V Lite proves you don't need to spend $200 for a good night's sleep. The V-shaped baffles cradle your body and prevent sliding. It's heavier than premium options but at $65, it's the best value sleeping pad for bikepacking.
Who Is the Klymit Static V Lite Best For?
Budget-conscious warm-weather bikepackers. If that describes your riding style, the Static V Lite should be at the top of your shortlist. It sits in the Sleep Systems category alongside 11other products we've reviewed.
How It Compares
At 460g and $65, the Static V Lite is 210g heavier than the lightest option in this category (the Therm-a-Rest NeoAir UberLite at 250g). It's also the most affordable option available.
