Tidy Tent Bike Cave
- Use In The Garden Or Whilst Camping
- New Improved Material
- Includes Protective Hood and an additional zip across the bottom of the door panel
April 2021 – UPDATE – after listening to customer feedback, the manufacturer's latest design improvements now include:
- the lower edge of the door panel is now sealed with an additional horizontal zip
- the mesh floor panel of the previous model has now been replaced with a PE plastic sewn-in groundsheet
- two ventilation panels with outer velcro adjustable weatherproof flaps have been added to the roof panel to reduce internal condensation.
Tidy Tent have enhanced the design, having listened carefully to customer feedback over many years. First thing to note is that they've changed the fabric to a new heavy duty, woven plastic material. This is much tougher than the previous polyester material. It’s made of a woven, rip-resistant polyethylene (PE), a high grade tarpaulin-like material which is both durable and waterproof. Fundamentally the size, shape and appearance remains the same, so that the rain just rolls off.
They have also now incorporated an additional PE “second skin” roof hood, which fits over the top of the main cover and hooks onto the eyelets along the arch shaped sides. A draw string nylon guy line allows it to be tightened and optionally can be pegged down for additional stability in high winds. This new fly sheet or “roof hood” not only makes the Bike Cave more waterproof but also extends the lifetime of the product.
Another improvement is that they have also changed the shape of the door panel. The new door panel shape makes it easier to zip and unzip without snagging. Even though the door shape has been modified, the Bike Cave is still modular. If you want to increase the depth of your bike cover you can still extend its size by purchasing and attaching a new style tidy Tent Xtra
The base has also changed from from a plastic groundsheet to a tough mesh floor panel. This improves air circulation to reduce internal condensation and allows any water ingress to quickly drain away.
Finally, you’ll also find they've incorporated an additional foldaway groundsheet extension strip along the front edge. It can sometimes be difficult to zip or unzip the door panel with one hand when you’re trying to hold onto your bike with the other. So, by placing your foot on this handy new “tread strip” you can create more tension in the fabric making it easier to use the zip with one hand. It also makes for a neater edge and reduces the risk of damage to the product when mowing the lawn. If you prefer not to use it, no problem, just tuck it underneath out of the way.
As with any tent structure, dependent upon the extent of inclement weather, there can sometimes be a small amount of ingress of rain water or condensation. Should this occur, the mesh groundsheet is designed to allow any water ingress to drain away quickly and effectively.
Please note there is a limit to how much weight the bike tent’s fibreglass rods can withstand. The product really should not be used in snow. It is certainly not designed to withstand heavy snowfall.
If you do use in snow then clear the snow off regularly to keep snow build-up to a minimum. Damage to the product as a result of use in snow is not covered by warranty.
Please also note that over time it is possible that the fabric of your bike tent may fade in sunlight. Please note: this product is manufactured from a durable, hardwearing plastic however we make no guarantee as to the longevity of the product since wear and tear will vary very significantly depending on installation method, Ultra Violet (UV) exposure, temperature variation etc.
You must maintain your Bike Cave by regularly spraying or coating the fabric with a proprietary UV protective and waterproofing tent spray. We recommend Fabsil Universal Protector
Note: this product is marketed under several brand identities, targeting different market sectors. You may also come across it under the names of Tidy Tent and CampaCave. TidyTent, Tidy Tent, BikeCave, Bike Cave and CampaCave are all registered trade marks.

Quite sturdy, although I’m not an experienced camper only took me half an hour to put up on my own
Plenty of room for storage, I have three adult cycles in there -

Bought it as an alternative for shed to house garden furniture. It was a lot bigger than I expected, very pleased. -

I bought one of these as a replacement for the previous one I owned which had been fantastic but had ripped. Even though this was more than twice the price of the original, I bought it as it was advertised as an improved, more hardwearing design. I was very disappointed. Not only is the new material not much better than the old material but the tent is badly put together. The supporting rods seem too long, with the result that the mesh floor of the tent stands an inch or two clear of the floor. This means that anything put inside immediately puts stress on the tent and pulls it down. not only this, but the guides the rods slide through pull them into an unnatural and unstable shape. The detachable cover is a good idea, but it doesn't really make up for the fact that it is difficult to see this lasting more than a few months. -

Good value for money and an excellent size. We seemed to have two sets of extra poles. -

Bit more expensive than others. Worth it for size, quality and waterproofing. -

I’ve been looking at the tidy tent for absolute ages but couldn’t decide between this or an bike shed. Pleased I finally made the decision. It’s much bigger than expected and fits a great deal. It’s behind my out building in the garden by the back gate so can’t be seen but is less of an eyesore than a great big shed, much cheaper too! Overall very happy -

Only attempted to erect tent indoors, but appears to be very useful as we are motorhome users. Hope to put this in use in a short while. I will have to erect this "one handed" as my husband is disabled. -

It is exactly what we wanted and is of a rally good quality. We like the fact that it can be left as an open shelter during the day but can be completely closed at night to protect the items in it from the cold and rain. -

I bought two of these tents. They are great to tidy space. They are big. We have 2 adult bikes in one and three children's bikes in the other.
Unfortunately they are not waterproof the water drips in from the top. I have sprayed them with a tent waterproofer and they still leak. It is still significantly better than having the bikes constantly outside, so i shall keep them. I would not recommend storing anything electrical in them. -
