Big fan of this... great for cycle packing. Poles can be a pain as shock chord has snapped twice.
Huge... great porch that will swallow a touring bike with the front wheel removed, possibly two. Inner is very long with more than enough room for my 6ft 6ins frame. Headroom good. Door flexibility, midge nets and very good ventilation. Very quick pitch and solid in nasty conditions. Lightweight: fine for carrying on the touring bike, and would be acceptable shared between two backpackers.
Poles... although aiding the pitch, the shock chord has snapped twice during pitching and I have rethreaded them with a bit more slack. Prudent to carry some spare shock chord just in case.
Solid tent, which does the job well. Shame about those poles.http://wp.me/pl7Mb-3h
