MSR Carbon Reflex 1 person tent. Used once. £200

Post by ericrobo »

I've only used this tent once, so it's practically brand new.
It is very light at 670g. I bought it from Ultralight Outdoor Gear. It has a flysheet.
It includes a super light nylon groundsheet.

I also replaced the Velcro fasteners for the flysheet with a zip.

Hello Eric,

I'm interested in this. Does it have the top length of pole for spreading the width across the top?

Cheers Mac.

Hiya @macinblack
Yes, there’s a short pole across which holds the flysheet.
You can see one end of it in the second picture, where the guy line meets it.

The original design, just clips (their marketing said it would save weight (pish!)), I found to be useless, so I took it to a sewing shop and they put a zip all the way down.The zip is on the inside part. Much better as it keeps the wind out.

I can take a picture if you really want… ?
