Dragonfly OSMO Bikepack 1P
Nemo Dragonfly OSMO Bikepack 1P Review
Tested and reviewed for bikepacking use
Nemo designed the Dragonfly OSMO Bikepack specifically for bikepacking, splitting the tent into two compact stuffsacks that fit inside handlebar rolls and seat packs. The OSMO fabric resists moisture absorption better than standard nylon, so it packs down small even when damp.
Who Is the Nemo Dragonfly OSMO Bikepack 1P Best For?
Solo bikepackers who need a tent that packs into bike bags without a bulky stuff sack. If that describes your riding style, the Dragonfly OSMO Bikepack 1P should be at the top of your shortlist. It sits in the Shelters & Tents category alongside 11other products we've reviewed.
How It Compares
At 879g and $400, the Dragonfly OSMO Bikepack 1P is 729g heavier than the lightest option in this category (the Borah Gear Cuben Fiber Tarp at 150g). The most budget-friendly option is the Borah Gear Cuben Fiber Tarp at $200.
The price-to-weight ratio comes in at $46 per 100g — a premium price point, but you're paying for quality, materials, and design that justify the investment for serious bikepackers.
