The Wide Path Camper is a two-person camper that can be towed along by a bicycle. This contraption weighs just 99 pounds and measures 99 x 130 centimeters when being towed. Its interior height is 130 cm and includes a table and chairs which can be turned into a 97 x 200 cm bed.
The camper's small size may concern people worried about cross-winds. However, the wheels are thoughtfully placed at an angle to increase stability and track width, and the camper itself has been tested in wind speeds of up to 54 km/h.
There are currently 50 Wide Path Campers available for pre-order and starting at a price of $2,170. With traditional campers often really big and not affordable to many, this vehicle represents a cheaper and more easily portable alternative especially for couples.
