Mostly wondering about packed size and weight, how people are choosing to carry them on bike.
I don't mind spending the monies on a tent, my last tent went 20 years and travelled the world and was good in a Swedish winter, and the base of the Grand Canyon in the height of Summer, as well as places like Margaret River in Western Australia and the Thai jungle.
I want lightweight and well ventilated, but yet the possibility to deal with cold and wet weather, and all of this with a small packing size and enough space to not require wet bags be in the main compartment.
Hilleberg will definitely be the way forward for that one then, if you want it to last. They're used all over the place, and most do what you want...It's on my list of things to get once I've saved up!
What is winning the lightweight tent recommendations?
I'm currently looking at Hilleberg Anjan 2 GT or Nallo 2 GT.

Though I've also considered the Nammatj 2 GT even though it's pushing 3.7kg when packed:
