Anybody had or got one of these? Just want some personal feedback from people on a 'camping' forum.... As oppose to reading a bad review off someone who may never have camped before and put the tent up wrong!!! If you get me?

I do loads of cycle touring so it's perfect in terms of size. I'm average height and slim so I know it won't be a squeeze for myself.

Thanks.

Ive got a Solo, couple of picgures of my bike and tent on backpacking page. It is light, waterproof have had to stay in it for 36 hours once dud to weather on pennines. It is a one man tent so is small. I'm 6ft 2 and find it ok. I cant sit upright fully in it .

For fully enclosed and bug free in windy or wet weather where there are notrees I use it. When it is fine and trees I use a bivvybag and tarp for more space but exposed slightly more and no mosi net. The solo can be strapped to handlebars too

Thanks for reply lescargo; I got one and have pitched it in a garden quickly; bloody brill for me. All being well I am actually off on a quick overnight trip tomorrow! Am using tent and setting a tarp up too (just for the hell of it!) I had very similar size tent but single skin;
