Kaitum 3
$1,290.00
Description

  Maximum usable space, outstanding comfort, and strength in a lightweight package

  Because of its two door/two vestibule configuration, its lightweight yet strong materials and its smart design, the Hilleberg Kaitum 3 provides a stunning balance of super light weight, overall comfort and high strength. Backpackers gravitate toward the Kaitum 3’s light weight and remarkable roominess, as do paddle and bicycle tourers, who also appreciate its small packed size. Hunters, winter campers, ski tourers, and climbers favor the Kaitum 3 because of its all-season strength as well as its low weight. And taller users will find the Kaitum’s plentiful floor space, vertical entrances, and vertical walls a roomy pleasure.

  A note on colors: Fabric dyes have natural variations, so the actual tent color may look slightly different from what is pictured here.

Revel Bikes Returns! Founder Rescues Beloved Brand
  The original version of this story was published on BikeRumor.   There have been far too many stories recently of brands shutting down, employees being let go, and generally hard times for the bike industry.

  I’ve been keen to get my hands on a knife with a little more bulk.

Our Editors Love This ‘Go Anywhere’ Utility Bike: Eaglebear Black Everyday Review
  You’ve probably never heard of Eaglebear Bikes before. Don’t worry — I hadn’t either. That’s probably because the brand didn’t exist until April 2024, and it sells just one bike model (in several variations).   It’s more likely that you’ve heard of the popular kids bike brand Prevelo. Prevelo produces a complete line of some of the best kids bikes on...

The drivetrain systems vary from single-speeds and internally geared hubs to gearboxes like the new Pinion Smart.Shift....
Cool Off After Coachella At These 3 Desert Oases
  Coachella’s music, scenery, and summer camp vibe makes it easy to escape from almost every aspect of reality—except, of course, for the desert heat. Around every day at 3:00 PM, it starts to feel like someone is personally taking a hot blow-dryer to your face. By the end of the weekend, most folks are a little sunburnt and totally fried....
