I use a Vango Beta 350 if I want room. It weighs in at a hefty 5 kilos though, no wider than the bike.


Yeah, I 've got a Beta 250 which is great solo (2 at a pinch), with a nice big porch for the kit. Alloy poles and tunnel design, good quality, light, and good HH, better in bad weather than the Khyam, but a bit low for a dodgy back.

Thanks for the ideas, gents. I'd been looking at Vango Omega / Beta 350,some discrepancy on some sites as to height, but it's looking like an Omega 350.......when there's enough room in the camping cupboard!
