Hi there

Ive just bought my moma Eurohike Stowe. Unfortunatly it has arrived with NO poles :o we have called everywhere to find out pole measurements! and no one can help us. Is there anyone who could possibly help us if they have a tent *could you measure a pole for us please.

Alsu unsure about the front pole is it a straight fibreglass pole??? as some pictures portray it as a 3 sections rigid pole.

You can do this by trial and error start with a long pole and just keep cutting it down, until you can fit the poles without forcing my guess is for a tent that sort of size the poles will be 9.5mm, the porch will probably be 7.9mm poles but as you suspect the top of the porch poles look like they have pre-angled metal ferrules, the angles don't look to severe so the porch may pitch ok with a plain bent pole, provided it is flexible enough.

Thankyou SO much Chappers2341. Going to pop into the camp shop on our way out tomorrow, apparently they have an assortment of random sized poles for £1 so cant hurt to get a few and give them a try.

Just one thing when you do. are the poles the stort that have a stud that fits into a metal eyelet on a webbing strap or are they the ones where a metal pin slots into the end of the metal ferrule on the end of the pole. If they are the former then  make sure you get some of the studs to slip on the end of your new poles.
