I bikepack, I tour and I backpack. I use the same shelter for all three modes. It has never occurred to me "I needed" an "ideal system" for each mode or any specific mode such as touring so I am very curious as to your rationale here. After all it is all it is camping irrespective of style of transport. The only consideration I had in my choice of shelter was its pack-down size, so if the OP is serious about bikepacking that is maybe something to consider.
My current choice of shelter is a
Zpacks Duplex which being cuban fibre hasn't really ticked the packability box but I am happy with it. That said it is outside the price range of the OP so not suggesting it as suitable option.
My previous shelter was a
Tarptent which is differently a brand I would recommend to the OP. Some excellent options in their range.
This is my bikepacking setup BTW ...
