Any reasonable offers considered! Bit specialized i know, but it is a very non claustrophobic bivi!
Reason selling is cause i've been 'solo' now for quite a while.....

Sorry I'm confused.....

I looked at OR bivi's quite extensively recently and the "advanced Bivy sack' is most definitely a SINGLE person bivy.

Do you have any images of it? I might be interested!

As you say, they do a single, but they also did a double! I've got their catalogue (think it's approx 6yrs old)........i'll try and take a photo. Too be honest it will just look like the single.....tis the dimensions that are the give-away!
[Two nights on The Quantocks and five on coast path is it's use.....with 3mm under all the underneath].

Ok, thanks after a bit of fiddling on Google managed to get a pic up from a 2005 magazine of the double.

Pricewise its a bit expensive but the real thing for me is the door.... I'm not 100% convinced it works (based on the single)

Need to have a think

I know your'e gonna say "but you're bound to say that", but the door set-up really does work! We had a down-poor one night and we were bone dry.
I now use Alpkit's bivi bag, which i love, but it's a single of course and that IS claustrophobic!
Open to offer's ...........i understand it's a bit of a risk.....

Could you confirm if the main pole is 1 piece OR if you have to attach short extensions with grommets that clip in?

The poles work just like a tent....shock-corded and fit into sleeves...
