    In this video I demonstrate the set up and specification of the Slumit Club 2 with FlashFrame Pitch + Pack System. The tent is perfect for Motorcycle camping due to it's compact size and quick set up time.
    *This is the 2020 model, the 2021 new edition has some enhanced modifications.
    *Please note my error at 8:00 minutes in, first you should release the top centre mechanism before you fold the legs in*

    Thanks for showing us the breakdown of the tent. I've watched other videos which show how to put it up but yours is the only one to show it being taken down.

    I love the slumit tents,I've got the gobi 3,so easy to put up and take down,my gobi survived a very wet and windy snowdonia a couple of years ago,it stayed dry and stood up well to the high winds.

      I’ve just got the Slumit Grizzly 4 berth and will be reviewing it Monday. A lot bigger but not much bigger packed down. The Cub 2 is perfect for a 1 night even 2 night for 1 person as long as you leave luggage on bike. For a good weeks camping I’m gonna try the Grizzly 4 for that extra room. Look out for the video. If you do buy one contact them and say you are buying because of this video, they might offer you some discount. Thanks for watching 🙌🏻

    It's okay to put up but a real pita to put away, it will fight to go back in the bag leaving you drenched in sweat. Then there's the bulk , classed as a motorcycling tent this was the biggest thing on my bike and always in the way. If i'm going to carry this i may go for the lone rider garage tent instead , or for short trips i'm going back to a regular small pole tent that packs away neat and small ,plus a tarp between bike and tent for a coffee area

    2 questions if you could help would be much appreciated.
    1. Did you purchase the footprint for this?
    2. What tarp poles are you using in this video.
    Thanks.

    • @Motourev
