I have the X mate and I own a large bed chair (SS4 wideboy) literally fits perfectly in the X, the normal one would be too small.
To be safe id go for the X, it's literally only 10cm bigger in length, height and width than the standard so barely any difference, but you just get that little extra room and height to be safe

That was what I was thinking,cheers

I like the look of these and am looking at the X model. Would like to see them all in the flesh rather than the stated dimensions though, so could be some wait until I can do that
I have a V2 brolly and V2 bivvy which I use for short/long sessions. I find the V2 bivvy massive and the brolly a little on the squeeze size but not uncomfortable for a night or 2. Im sure the XD is similar in size to the V2 bivvy and the standard frontier more like the V2 brolly. So I'm hoping the X is somewhere in the middle which would be perfect for me as I'd sell both my bivvy and brolly for it

Yeah the X is decent size... Got my flatliner in no problem with a bit of room head and feet end and then you have about a metre space in front...
Personally don't get why the need for a capsule but hey that's me.. When the capsule is fitted it is the same dimensions as the X model...

Not sure mate, but if you're worried about the height I have the tall ss4 bedchair and I'm 6ft 3 and the head room is fine for me, can see out the bivvy too

Just want I wanted to hear, I have the ss4 and was hoping there was a bit more height than the tempest 100

Cant comment on the comparison with the 100 but seems good enough with mine. No negatives from me on the height of the X

Let's just say if you sit on an ss4 in an advanced 100, you get a bad neck looking out and I'm only 5'11”

So how does the Frontier X compare to the Tempest 100 bivvy? Is it just the a bit higher? Im assuming you get more floor space in the Frontier with the flat back? Is the material better on the Tempest?

Not sure mate, but here are the dimensions for the frontiers. The flat back definitely makes more room for the front but not sure if the depth is smaller or bigger than the 100 bivvy.
Fox frontier
(Width 2.50 x Depth 1.85 x height 1.3)
Fox frontier X
(Width 2.60 x Depth 1.98 x height 1.4)

I cant help but think them elbow joints made from plastic are going to become brittle with long term use after being exposed to the elements. it looks a tidy bivvy and 5 years from start to finish product seems a long time,but how long has the finished product been tested for...I hope its a hit as it looks decent.
stand by for the camolite version in 12 months no doubt that will get people selling the green just for camo....

If they are heavy duty nylon like the tempest block they will be fine.They are shaped so hopefully don't have too much pressure on them

Cancelled my TFT order as no sign at all of it being delivered. They seemed relieved when I asked to cancel so supports the comment below of them overselling pre orders.
Ordered from Tasker's angling and it's coming tomorrow (they have two left in stock)
Will pop a video in here when it comes and I have chance.
