I've lost 2 storm guys off my Macpac sololight and looking for to replace them. Maybe somebody has a retired, busted one they don't use?
macpac only offer the generic replacement guy and I'm too pedantic and a stickler for the original set to go there....weird, I know.
Qué?
MacPac do actually provide replacement guylines, the same OEMs as fitted to their tents, not "generic". I have had them replaced on my Minaret and Duolite! Go into a MacPac store or Adventure Hub. The guyline packs should be there.
On my MONT Moondance 1 (same 'sunflower yellow' as Minaret and Duolite), I have replaced the dull black/reflective braided lins with snazzy MSR's red/reflective braided guys with better antislip locking toggles. I think I bought these from BOGONG down in Melbourne 2 years or so ago.
MacPac's guylines are a little flimsy, hence my upgrade to the thicker MSR lines. EGM's suggestion of an upgrade is worth pursuing. Come Spring and I'll probably upgrade the lines on the Minaret and DuoLite tents, maybe something green to contrast with the yellow fabric, or brown...perhaps fluoro...choices, choices, choices!
