  • looking at lightweight 2 person tents, ideally one that would fit in a full frame bag when bikepacking. I am less precious about space and weight when touring with panniers because the rack can take anything really on the top bit. I am 6ft4 so needs to be long.

    Someone local to me is selling a Vaude terrahogan 2p for around 150 second hand - that seems decent - 1.8kg, long enough, big enough for 1 person. Doesn't look to have a separate inner and outer though.

    Good buy?

  • Sorry can't really help, not the mind of tent I'd buy.
    JB and platypus are advocating the tarptent double rainbow. Nice big openings and lighter. But perhaps a bite more than your suggested.

  • Similar height to you and explored a few options. Ended up with a Nature Hike Star River 2 which I'm very pleased with. Has vertical rather than sloped end walls which means there's room for head and feet not to touch, and there is space enough to sit upright. Previously had a Vango Banshee 300 and was never comfortable in it, even though supposedly it was a 3-man.
