AliExpress have a stock of One Man Solid Inners from 3F that will fit a number of Pyramid Tents. The dimensions should fit the Luxe Hexpeak.

Workmanship from 3F is excellent , comes in at 450g.

Be interested to see it pitched in a Hexpeak when anyone gets the chance.

Very nice. I’m going to be doing a couple of nights in my SL3 with the inner this week so will take some photos and add to the tread. Looks so much larger than the previous inner.

@el manana I just looked at a few of yours in full size and and most are less than 70kb. Maybe they kept the original EXIF data. That’s why one of mine is rotated. It’s not but the forum software thinks it is.

Trust me that first image loads into the browser at 1.2mb. I've been doing this stuff since 1998 when we limited ourselves to 10k images I know what I'm talking about.

That's good news @el manana - I bought one of these for my Hex recently but haven't played with it yet; it certainly measures up spot-on.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but aren't these a limited run/special order from 3F UL? If so, I just wonder if @Bob Cartwright at backpackinglight.co.uk (who I think is the sole UK seller for Luxe Outdoor) might consider commissioning a run of these (and perhaps an all-mesh version) from 3F UL which he could sell, perhaps under his own label, as an option for Hexpeak buyers/users. It might even have the effect of spurring Luxe into making a more weight-viable inner of their own. There again, they might take take a dim view of their product being 'undermined' which would be a pity because, as a package, the Luxe Hexpeak V4A is a truly excellent 660g tent let down by by a deeply uninspiring 600g inner.

If you would like to know what mine needed:

- The cord on the pitchlock corners isnt quite long enough if you want to share the pegs with the fly sheet so you could replace it - or what I've done is added a loop of 3mm shock cord to each cord to give it a bit extra length and flex. I'll probably just stick with this.
- The adjustable hanging point is a brass eyelet, Hexpeak V4 i think have an O ring at the top so this will need to be fixed so they can connect, I've attached a small Krab to the brass eyelet of the inner for now (the O ring at the Hexpeak apex is quite hard to get to i found, its quite short when a pole is in the way)

Two minor points
- The corner cords need a knot in the cord a couple of inches from the end so you have something to grab and pull without it getting stuck in the lineloc.
- the door tie back toggles are a bit loose, so I've added a small shockcord loop to each one so i can tie them back.

Other than that you should be good to go.
