LX27 Clamshell Rooftop Tent

About the Roof Top Tent – LX27 Clamshell

The LX27 Clamshell Rooftop Tent is the lightest in The Bush Company range at only 73Kg, but still delivers on the strength and quality of materials that our products are world renowned for.

At only 172mm high this tent will suit virtually any vehicle regardless of roof load capacity and you should still be able to get in your garage. There’s 80mm space above the mattress when closed, so you can still store your bedding and pillows inside the tent.

With less that a 60 second setup/pack down, double skinned canvas walls & doors, dual layered super comfortable mattress and full electrical package are just some of the features that makes the LX27 Clamshell Rooftop Tent one of the best touring tents available.

Key Features of the Roof Top Tent – LX27 Clamshell

Aluminium Extruded Frame

The LX27 has a super tough fully seam welded lightweight alloy frame with a high quality powder coated finish, designed to weather the toughest conditions.  The ‘Ezi-Slots’ built into the top and bottom sections of the frame make fitting accessories a breeze, plus there is a unique sail track channel built into the side of the base section for easy attachments of canvas accessories like boot bags.

Dual Layered Canvas

The canvas on the LX27 is 260gsm/8oz polyester rip stop acrylic infused mould and mildew resistant.  To help reduce condensation inside the tent the walls are dual layered and with inner and outer canvas doors on the rear and side entrances.  Above the rear door under the rainfly is a meshed vent that can be opened to assist with airflow if you need to zip up all the doors in poor conditions.

Rainfly At Sides and Rear

The LX27 has a rainfly at the rear that wraps around to provide cover over the side entrances. The rainfly is attached to the tent with sail track on the rear and sides, but can either be rolled up or fully removed if not required. The rainfly is supported by heavy duty 8mm spring steel poles and has adjustable storm straps for heavier wind conditions.

Insulated Roof Lining

The LX27 has a durable and stylish insulated layer on the underside of the roof and riv-nuts preinstalled in all the internal roof beams to allow easy fitment of internal accessories like a Scirocco fan.

Internal Storage

The LX27 has a large set of roof storage pockets and two side pouches on either side of the tent and bottle holders on either side of the rear door.
