Fit the bill

Arrived wednesday, pitch it for test right out of the box, then departure thursday for a 3 days trip in Belgium. I bought the tent for my trekking trips, but curiously its very first use has been for a classic motorcycle trip, camping included.
The Revolution 1.5P was everything I expected, and more : compact, light, easy to pitch, roomy enough to store all my motorcycle gear (so, with "only" my trek gear it'll be a dream!), even stands a huge storm during saturday night like a champ !
The size is just about perfect for 1 person + gear, no condensation at all, pitching with the inner connected at the fly is a bliss and the packed size (I've got the 30 cm bikepacking version) is what I was looking for since years.
And on top of that, great customer service.

Early days

I have not tested it outdoors yet, but I have pitched it 2 times, and it is very easy and quick to raise.
I appreciate that the fabric is stretched out so it not so "floppy" in wind. My last tent was very noisy with regards to that.
It is very roomy and its really great that it has pockets in every corner and lot of "hooks" in the roof. That makes it very practical to use.
The only negative I have seen is that the hooks for the inner "door" is positioned far to high. They should have been more or less 12 cm lower down (where the upper part of the inner pocket is) to be able to catch all of the mesh, so that its not hanging down, and in the way)
Otherwise all positive for now, seems to be good quality work!

Thank you for your review and suggestions for improvements.

No solid inner possible

Had it for a week or so and pitched it in my livingroom to tjek it for flaws. None found :-) Easy to pitch, very roomy and with a very small packsize it is ideal for bikepacking and backpacking as well. As i live in a country where the wind always blows, i would wish tha the option for a solid inner was possible. I hope that it will be an option to buy a seperat inner later on.

We do make a solid 'Breathable Fabric' inner for the Revolution 1.5P tent. At the time you ordered they were not in stock, but they will be available later. And yes, inners can be purchased separately.

Fun tent and some suggestions

This tent is very interesting, I like it very much, like its style, like its fabric and color, the comprehensive cost performance is very high, but I also have some suggestions to improve
1.Tent accounts still need to have three seasons and four seasons to distinguish, so it is more convenient for our consumers to choose
2I have never bought a tent without floor nails, whether it is a Chinese brand, an American brand or a European brand. When I received it, I was shocked, thinking that you forgot to send it to me, which needs to be improved. Yes, as an outdoor lover, I will have many tents and a lot of floor nails, but each tent has its own floor nails. I suggested that it would be better to sell with a peg, because if I didn't open the tent and went camping directly, it would be embarrassing without a peg
3.For the tent, it is still recommended that the waterproof strip has been painted when the factory is ready
Thank you~!

QUESTIONS & ANSWERS

  • BIKEPACKING VERSION 30CM/12IN FOLDING LENGTH ULTRA LIGHT VERSION DAC NFL What is the difference between these two types of poles?

    Both Ultra Light and Bikepacking pole options are aluminum... strength is similar.

    Bikepacking poles: shorter folding length (30cm), weight is a little more than Ultra Light poles, and less expensive

    maybe in the future.

  • Is it possible to set up the inner tent separately?

    No, if you want to set up inner without outer/fly, we suggest considering Big Sky's Evolution tent series.
    Note: Big Sky's Revolution tent series works great if you want to set up outer without inner.
