Having just returned from a second tour carrying this tent on the back of a bike I had to write a review to say what a great little tent this is. Positives are as follows:
- Very good quality: lightweight metal poles that feel as though they'd last forever; top notch tent pegs that will take much more abuse than any other pegs I've used before; lots of lovely little features like variable air vents, a hanging hook for a lantern and retro-reflective guy ropes to stop people tripping over them.
- Very easy to put up: colour coded poles, and an inner tent that remains suspended inside the fly sheet means this can be easily put up in less than ten minutes.
- Rock-solid when erected: well positioned ropes and a sleek design make me think that this tent could withstand serious gales without any problem at all.
- A porch that makes it feel much bigger than it is: the porch happily swallowed 6 big cycle pannier bags whilst leaving plent of space to move in and out - this means that even when you are rained in the tent doesn't feel too small or claustophobic.
Wanting to be objective, I'd like to be able to give some negative points to balace the review, but there is nothing I can really think of.
In short, would highly recommend for anyone wanting to hike or cycle and carry their own kit with them
