Did you use it when you set the bivvy up

It's a question of suck it and see try one knot then two or more. Just put the knots at the edges so you don't trip over them. It will reduce the width though so if you have a long bedchair beware.

You should have a pegging point atbeither extreme where the tension strap attaches
You can just push that rib in a bit by a few inches each side then peg it . You can experiment then.

He shouldn't really need to do that on a new bivvy though,

I kind of thought this myself, I don't see it adding my much more room though by putting a few knots in it but I will happily try.

How though ..... my chair folds out to a certain height there's not a lot I can do about that, the only thing I could do is not fold out the back legs of my chair and be sat virtually on the ground this is the only way I can see the chair fitting in with a lot of clearance from the top

God knows, but that bivvy is over a metre tall and chairs aren't so something must be wrong somewhere. People live in bivvies for weeks on end so have quite a bit of kit that fits inside and yet you cant fit a simple chair in? It doesn't make sense if everything is set up correctly

Yeah I had a look, should still fit easily if everything is set up properly. It does say your chair is 57cm, so add the legs and it should still be under a metre though? And your bivvy is 1.3?

i saw the link mate, and it did look tall and high backed. however with a 130 cm (i read the spec) bivvy
if you shorten the tension strap or just peg it narrower at those points, im sure you will be happy
i looked at the video , and when the guy attached the tension strap it hardly did anything, so it does sit low
i think you have a lot of wiggle room there to make it higher.

If you peg out the two front points closer together the bivvy will sit taller. That should be all you need to do, forget about tension straps.
Hi all, anybody can tell me the Frontier X door, is the same size as the 1man Frontier or is it higher? Thanks
