Warum dieses Produkt

Warum der CVT Mt. Bachelor Softshell 48"?

At 95 lbs, the Mt. Bachelor 48" is exceptionally light for a clamshell tent. The 30-second setup and 3-inch mattress are strong selling points for the weight. The 600D poly-cotton canvas and 3-plus-season rating give it slight cold-weather capability beyond basic 3-season tents. If your vehicle has limited payload capacity or you want to minimize rooftop weight, this should be near the top of your list.

Häufige Fragen

Häufig gestellte Fragen

The CVT Mt. Bachelor Softshell 48" weighs 95.00 lbs. Your rack's dynamic load rating is the limiting factor—not static. Most factory crossbars handle 150–165 lbs dynamic. If you're close to the limit, aftermarket bars solve the problem. Nutze unseren Kompatibilitäts-Check to confirm.

The CVT Mt. Bachelor Softshell 48" weighs 95.00 lbs (43.10 kg). Here's why that matters: your vehicle's dynamic roof load rating must comfortably exceed this weight. Add passengers sleeping inside (static load only) and you need the static rating to clear roughly 395.00 lbs total.

Die Montage erfordert zwei Personen und etwa 45 Minuten. The CVT Mt. Bachelor Softshell 48" bolts to your crossbars using the included mounting hardware. Key requirement: verify your crossbar spread is between 24" and 48" before you start.

Yes, but the CVT Mt. Bachelor Softshell 48"'s folded profile creates more wind resistance than a hardshell. Highway speeds of 65–70 mph are fine when properly secured. Here's why caution matters: check all buckles and straps before driving—a loose cover flapping at speed can tear fabric and damage the tent.

The CVT Mt. Bachelor Softshell 48" uses 600D poly-cotton canvas fabric with a 3000mm waterproof rating. Das ist wichtig: 1500mm hält mäßigem Regen stand, 3000mm+ hält Dauerregen stand. It's rated 3_plus. Versiegele alle Reißverschlüsse jährlich, um die Wasserdichtigkeit zu erhalten.

Expect about 0 minutes for a full setup of the CVT Mt. Bachelor Softshell 48". That includes unfolding, extending the ladder, and securing any rainfly or annex. Practice twice at home and you'll cut that time in half. Teardown takes roughly the same.

Plan for a 15–20% fuel economy hit with the CVT Mt. Bachelor Softshell 48" installed. Here's why: 95.00 lbs of added weight plus aerodynamic drag increase consumption at all speeds. The penalty is worst above 65 mph where drag scales exponentially. Some owners only mount it for trips to minimize the ongoing cost.
