In reply to Post #12 I believe the Standard and the Lite are the same size, so should fit, as you say. Different material though (weight + colour differences).

In reply to Post #11 Based on what I’ve read, the regular infill from a fox frontier would also fit the frontier lite…
2 Dutch shops have it still available. Maybe a last resort?

In reply to Post #1 I’ve got one, it’s a good shelter, but it’s definitely not ‘lite’!
I’ve been a brolly user for years so perhaps I’ve got used to the size and weight of a brolly, but it’s quite heavy and quite bulky IMO.
Plus bits: it’s really roomy, very stable, and quick/easy to put up and down.

In reply to Post #6 The Frontier Lite is rock solid. I really rate it for space vs size / weight and it’s brilliant value for money. I use it for any trip longer than one night. Much more expensive shelters have been and gone.

In reply to Post #7 I got mine for £250. The package was shelter, groundsheet, solid infill and vapour peak. I love it only be using with vapour peak so far but love it.

In reply to Post #5 I think the the fox eos pro co.i g out in ja uary will be what replaces the frontier lite, it looks decent for £299, slightly bigger than the frontier lite and 1kg heavier but still only comes in at 8kg I think it was.

My mate has a frontier lite, it looks nice.
It seems much bigger than my tempest 100, nice flatter back, higher door so less limbo.
A couple of things put me off though...
It seems less solid, a bit wobblier, I'm sure that flat back won't divert the wind as well, but the main gripe is the vapour peak can't be left attached when you collapse the bivvy.
I wonder if they will sort that on the mk2.

Is there a new Frontier Lite in the next lineup? Don't remember seeing anything...
I'd really like a Lite setup but I think I've left it too late, doesn't seem to be any accessory stock anywhere

In reply to Post #1 I'm in exactly the same boat as you, thinking about the Fox Flatliner, have the Air V2.
As the guys have said, being discontinued, my take on it, if you're not in a rush I'd buy one, some very good prices out there right now. The bits you want will always be getting listed on Ebay, espesh when the new versions launches shortly, so if you're not in a rush, win win

Try to find a package deal?

In reply to Post #1 The new range of frontiers was announced last month and due out soon ish hence all current stocks being sold off cheap until gone.

Hi all,
First post here in a while!
I’m considering a new shelter and wanted some opinions/knowledge. I’ve had a Tempest v2 brolly for a number of years that used to be adequate until I got a new bed (Flatliter mk2). This now takes up a lot of the Tempest’s useable space due to the sloping back.
I’ve had a look around and the Frontier lite looked the perfect solution - flat, high back so the bed fits better, still light enough and a zip in mozzy mesh which I always use these days
The issue is, I can’t seem to figure out if they’re being discontinued, along with all the extras?? The shelter is available cheap (£175), but the compatible mozzy mesh seems very hard to come by and all infills & vapour peaks etc are out of stock.
Can anyone shed any light on this?
Happy to hear any other options too. I barely fish these days - a 12 hour overnighter a month if I’m lucky, so need something relatively compact, quick to put up/take down, and sensibly priced but offering more space than the v2 brolly.
