Beat the heat and take motorcycle camping to the next level with the Atacama Expedition Tent in Ivory. The clean, new color is minimal and calm for a truly elevated experience, and the light hue reflects the sun's rays to minimize heat in scorching weather. The new Ivory model is a limited edition release of the proven Redverz Atacama design.
Why Atacama? The revolutionary design offers more usable space and a separate garage while packing small. It’s considerably more tent and on a motorcycle that's a big deal. Even a minimalist traveller rides with a helmet, boots, armored jacket and pants. This alone is a huge pile of gear to store and doesn't take into account sleeping bags, camp furniture or cookware. If you’re riding two-up that's double the load, so if you're sleeping in anything less than a 2-person tent it’s got to stay outside in the elements or comes inside leaving you with little room to get truly comfortable. Stop compromising and spread out. You can even stand up inside The Atacama and it's life-changing. Our large and loyal following will attest that as you sit sheltered and dry through your first torrential downpour the investment in a spacious Atacama truly pays off.
SLEEPING
Ignore the gargantuan garage for a moment. We know, it’s so spacious. Let’s start with capacity. The tent sleeps 3 but is designed for all configurations of 1, 2 or 3 campers.
Real world - how big is the bedroom?
1 Up - Think twin bed XL with a bed side camp chair and your riding gear generously spread about the room.
2 Up - A queen size mattress with ample space either side for your gear and your own unique entry/exit door.
3 Up - Pack it all in. Plenty of room for three standard pads but personal gear, like stinky socks and boots will store out in the garage. Need even more capacity? Use the garage area for additional campers. Throw a custom fit garage ground sheet down and invite a handful of friends to sleep over. That’s functional, versatile design at its best.
GARAGE/VESTIBULE
This is where it all happens in the Atacama Tent. Two opposing garage doors taper up from the bottom creating an entry you can ride any full-size touring adventure bike into, with panniers no less. Park up and there’s still loads of room to store gear and move about. The two main reasons to bring the bike inside are security and weather. It’s just practical to work on your bike or pack up gear out of the elements and rain. If security and theft are an issue, keeping the bike out of sight is a huge advantage. In reality, most customers use the extra space to simply hang out and lounge. Park up a few camp chairs and a table and you’ve got a civilized place to sip coffee, host a happy hour and make a meal, but the real defining moment in an Atacama is having a spacious area to wait out a storm. Stand up inside and move around freely while Mother Nature lashes it down, it’s truly life-changing.
TECH
Let’s get geeky about waterproofing for a moment. The Atacama outer fly sheet is fully waterproof at 4000mm hydrostatic head. When a storm comes through rest easy, at 4000mm hydrostatic head we far exceed the industry standard and are rated expedition grade.The tent floor and ground sheets are a whopping 10,000mm and set the gold standard for waterproofing and reliability.

POLES
Poles are the most critical tent component. We source ours from the world’s top tent pole manufacturer and build them out of the finest aircraft grade aluminum available. We designed an intentional pre-bend into each pole, a fine contour that helps to reduce stress and ensure top performance. Over time the poles will settle into an even more pronounced arc, this is beneficial and intentional. The gear is expedition grade and built to last, so whatever your trip throws at you these poles are designed to bring you home.
WHAT’S INCLUDED? The Atacama tent arrives in a compression stuff sack containing everything you need for your first set up. Tent purchase includes tent consisting of both inner tent and outer flysheet, poles, pole bag, stakes, stake bag, guy lines and stow bags.
OPTIONAL ACCESSORIES. Waterproof Redverz Gear dry bags and ground cloths are sold separately. The 50 Liter Dry Bag is a perfect fit for the Atacama Tent and leaves a bit of room for extra gear.
Two different, custom-fitted ground sheets are available for the sleeping area and the garage. Sleeping area ground covers protect your investment and extend the life of the floor, while a precision-fit garage ground cloth keeps condensation down and high traffic areas tidy.
Whether you circle the globe or set up for a weeklong rally The Atacama is home.
