Never liked the material on the 100T- however they've just released a 100T Brolly in Aquatex - 12.75kg total weight all in (bag poles pegs gsheet etc)

If he wants space inside like a ridgemonkey there's only 1 answer: Frontier X
Nash titan hide xl is spacious too but really ignore that one

Also don't forget that the stated weight of the frontiers are with all parts inc 3 front options (you only need one), and a lot bivvy pegs which weight ridiculously much.

I'm the same I have the frontier x and don't find it particularly heavy but I would say it's heavier than my other bivvies, like you said thought the pros massively out weigh the cons it's my favourite bivvy I've owned.
I got rid of my 100t after buying this both great bivvies just much prefer the frontier

because it is bigger or just a better shape than the 100t.
would the 100t in Aquatexx have made a difference to your choice ?

I've seen the Quest bivvys and been tempted for my trip to France, but see very little feedback on them, positive or negative so held back and debating on using my huge Trakker or my smaller Solar and taking a separate brolly as a day shelter to save money

Quest tackle defier is good but small inside despite the 280 x 220 outer dimensions my Frontier X is bigger inside .
I had the 10000 variant the 20000 will be even better, the whole package with extension also looks great
