New tent for the AR... - SV650.org

Yoooo

I saw this while I was looking for our new tent and thought it maybe of use to some of you...

http://www.campingandleisure.co.uk/catalog/product_info.php?cPath=1_90_96&products_id=533

OK, it's £150 but it's an easy up tent, has room for 2-3 people and then room for bags and lids.. And it's made to fit on the back of a bike

20cm x 20cm x 60 cm pack size
6kg weight

That seems quite big and heavy to carry on a bike.

Thats Huge - mine is 45cmx15cm x15cm, even weighs a third as much - although it does give more room (although Vixis and I were fine in it at AR0

Oh and my favourite tent shopping place has them even cheaper than Stretchies link - well £5 quid cheaper anyway

Well, I'm far from a champion of the tent, I wouldn't buy it myself as I have the tent I've used ofr the past 3 AR's and MoFo Central which you'll see this year

; )

To be honest I didn't even read the page, just saw the pretty picture and the promise of easy up

I am a tart I know..

looking at the pictures, that is pretty much the same size of my four man tent, but its lighter than mine. Had that tent on the back plenty of times without a problem.
