Yeah, there are lots of places that sell tent pole replacements that can provide something. A few companies sell poles specificalls designed for trekking pole tents that are intended to be carried on a bike. They break down into a short length to fit easily on a bike. CNOC is a source for them, Zpacks is another. There are a few others as well.
Many of us have left over poles from old tents that have been retired that could be pressed into service. They'd likely be aluminim and a bit heavier though.
