My mk1 Flatliter has finally completely fallen apart

What are my best options, i would rather prioritise light weight over comfort. I rarely do over 48 hours. But fish a few places that i need to carry kit by hand through brambles, so weight and size is the most important. Im 6ft and 13.5 stone, not sure if a compact size would suit me?

I'm cold blooded so need the option of a 5 season bag in winter, a 3 season bag with a cover isn't the same.

Am i best buying a sleep system, or a a seperate chair and bag(s)?

Any recomendations?

Budget is as little as possible without scrimping.

Are both of these replies meaning the bare bead chair?

Ive bought a trakker big snooze just to tie me over for this week and i have an old bedchair kicking about somewhere.

I was looking at the trakker superlight rlx or the whychwood, and then get a trakker 365 for winter. But not sure which chair is best or if there's a better winter bag out there.

I had the duralite sleep system after having a few Fox beds,it was very comfy and very light.I got rid as I found it harder to move about in than my flatliter 2 sleep system.I used it with the 3 season bag and cover,the 5 season bag for it is supposed to be very warm,the warmest bag I have ever used was the old fox ventec but it was huge and heavy

Rly get the Trakker 365 with a Solar CH08 bedchair
The 365 bag is heavy but damn good you will never need all layers if you don't fish below 0 degrees.

Is the weight on the solar one correct. Says 10.5kg, thats pretty heavy compared to the rest.
