Tony, it might be worth having a look at Decathlon. They sell a full range of spares for their tents meaning you can buy just an outer and pole set. Once the inner's removed, it can make for a roomy and fairly light shelter with good coverage. Also, well priced.
May the bridges you burn light your way

Ton,
If you are not in a hurry Ali Express sellers often sell their tents with a choice of inners, ie you can have an outer tent only.
I have a trailstar clone, which a few years back cost me £45 including delivery. Tons of space and headroom, also, very storm proof.

1 uses hiking pole and the bike as the other pole, 4 side guys on bike. (doubles as extra bike lock') . Stu (the boss) can make you carbon poles, which I am considering...
I hope you think you know, what I might of exactly meant.

Don't be tempted by a Trekkertent Stealth - I like mine, but it'll be too small.
