MSR Hubba Hubba Bikepack Tent

The MSR Hubba Hubba Bikepack for spring 2024 is made for those who live to adventure on two wheels. The new Hubba Hubba Bikepacking tent series (1-person and 2-person options) builds on the success of the award-winning Hubba Hubba and takes it up a notch with cycle-specific touches.

They will have a handful of other cycling-specific features on the bikepack version as well, such as:

  • The handlebar stuff sack integrates with nearly any handlebar shape without taking up valuable bar space
  • Shorter segment poles
  • Oversized gear lofts and oversized storage pockets
  • Interior and exterior clotheslines to make it easy to dry out sweaty or rain-drenched gear

This new, incredibly packable tent has been meticulously designed with thoughtful features that all cyclists will appreciate. The tent features a handlebar stuff sack that integrates seamlessly with nearly any handlebar shape without taking up valuable bar space, handlebar spacers to keep the bag steady and out of the way, and shorter segment poles (DAC NSL 8.5mm) to fit between drops or in small spaces. In terms of the tent itself, its true rectangular floor, which MSR is known for, provides exceptional living space, with extra headroom and large vestibules for cycling gear. Oversized gear lofts, plus interior and exterior clotheslines, make it easy to dry out sweaty or rain-drenched gear. Finally, its oversized storage pockets and strong construction made up of DAC poles, and DuraShield-coated fly and floors make this tent the best in class.

MSR Titanium Cookware – Titan Double Wall Mug, Titan Long Spoon, and Titan Spork

MSR is adding three new products to its Titanium cookware assortment for spring 2024 – a Titan Double Wall Mug, Titan Long Spoon, and Titan Spork. The brand also refreshes the collection with thoughtful updates to their Titan Kettles and their 450 mL Titan Cup, all designed to be more functional, packable, and reliable than ever before, making them the ultimate ultralight choice for thru-hikers and gram counters.

  • The Long Spoon (MSRP $17.95 USD) is ultralight and, as its name suggests, is extra-long for reaching into dehydrated meal pouches and tall pots. The new Titan Spork (MSRP: $14.95) is the reigning utensil champ of ultralight versatility with a handle carabiner loop.
  • The Titan Cup 450ml (MSRP: $39.95 USD) is the ultimate minimalist cookpot or ultralight cup to accompany a kettle. It features a silicon lip saver band to protect from hot meals (remember to remove before heating cup), silicone-coated handles that fold closed for packing and are comfortable to hold, and internal graduation marks that make for easy volume measurement.

  • The two new Titan Kettles – 900 and 1400ml better cater to the preferred volume needs of thru-hikers and ultralighters who tend only to boil water or melt snow. Improved handles provide comfort while holding and stay more secure while in your pack; snug-fit lid with a new knob design and internal graduation marks.
    • The Titan Kettle 900ml (MSRP: $64.95 USD), which weighs in at 4.6 ounces, is the perfect choice for one person when looking for an ultralight and durable cookpot to boil water or to use as a bowl or mug.
    • The Titan Kettle 1400 ml (MSRP: $69.95 USD), which weighs 5.7 ounces, is the larger offering, a perfect ultralight kettle for backcountry duos who want to boil water or melt snow.

  • The Titan Double Wall Mug (MSR: $49.95 USD) provides a double-wall performance that’s still light enough to carry in the backcountry.
