Hello GLIDARN!

Yes, our tents pop up by themselves.
It is a new concept pf tent: pop um in 1 second and goes back on the bag in 10 seconds.
You can see some more information here. (see the video on that site)
You have 3 options: 1 second tent (the smaller - good to use on moto), 2 seconds tent (medium size - goos to carry by car) and finaly the 3 seconds tent.
This product us exclusive to Decathlon (here in Portugal).

Thanks, how do you like it? What do you think of the quality/standard?
The circular shape when the tent is folded seems to make it less practical
to carry on a bike. Is it possible make it oval with straps or could that brake
the poles. Why I ask is b/c I don´t know where to fit it when riding 2up...

It looks very practical in other ways though.

I like it a lot.
Very good quality - like a regular tent.
I wouldn't try to make it oval with staps. It could brake, because the armature ia already in tension.
When you travel alone, you can carry it like i did (see photos on my report).
When you travel with passenger, you cau carry it on the passenger's back, vertically. I have a friend that went from Portugal to Romenia with his girlfriend and took the tent on her back (I will try to post some photos here - I'm sure he has got).

Cheers,
Rodrigo!

Like I said, here is the photo of my friend's moto (BMW R1150GS Adv . Luís Caetano), prepared to go from Portugal to Romenia with passenger and with the tent:



Cheers,
