FOX FRONTIER BIVVY - Carp Fishing Shelter - YouTube They do look the business, but the prices are unreel, all new bivvys now look around £500/£600 + Mark. £589 for Bivvy, £689 incl Inner Dome, £200 for wrap. But still... Wouldn't say no if I was bought 1 😁 Edited February 17 by Highy Carpmaster 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Carpbell_ll 664 Posted February 17 Report Share Posted February 17 To be honest it is hard to say this bivvy is over priced that material they use at 20.000 hh is as good as it will get due to weight issues with a higher HH,, the add ons' soon add up though inner domes and mozzie mesh come with a heavy carp tax as they are made to fit. Would really like one of these with all the add ons'. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ouchthathurt 716 Posted February 17 Report Share Posted February 17 I’ve still got my JRC STI Rapid Erection... it’s ancient! I got it when they first came out. they could have thought of a name that doesn’t conjure up images of a VD clinic, but still...

dayvid 1,388 Posted February 17 Author Report Share Posted February 17 The only extra i bought was the Vapour Shield ( Skull Cap ), really cant see the point in the full Mozzie front as it comes with a Mozzie door and Mozzie front s ,as for the overwrap almost pointless if you have the Skull cap IMO Highy 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
dayvid 1,388 Posted February 21 Author Report Share Posted February 21 Took my Frontier X out for a test ,yesterdayTotal weight with Vapour peak ,ground sheet pegs ect in the bag came in at 16.6 Kg.It fits a Nash SS3 Wide with around 6 inches clearance at both ends .and plenty of room inside .Clipping the arms in is relatively straightforward , taking apart does make you feel like you may bend them , but i didnt, how long the boss will last clipping them in and out (wear and tear) ,who knows .All in all, id say well made and an excellent bivvy finchey, elmoputney, Highy and 1 other 4 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
elmoputney 3,691 Posted February 21 Report Share Posted February 21 It does look good That mudflap in the groundsheet is a good idea isn't it, groundsheets never seem to recover from a mudfest 👍 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Oh the other thing is they market the groundsheet a HEAVY duty , No way at best MEDIUM duty , my Fox Supa brolly ground sheet is Heavy Duty Quote Link to post Share on other sites
