At the end of the video, there is a guide on how to turn the Hub into an awning with the supplied pair of king poles.

Well got Hub, it's height range is up to 1800mm for a car (it achieves this height by the use of an expander panel, but, you can't see it in the video as it is zipped up just above the side door on both sides), that isn't mentioned anywhere!. That excluded my VW Caddy as with a heavy duty roof rack the height to top of roof rack is 1950mm. I bought the hub and cancelled it by email (when I realised it didn't have a fitting height mentioned) and it arrived yesterday!!!. It's a lovely well made bit of kit (and I'd love to keep it), but although it might just about fit (I measured it including the pegging down expander strap and expander panel), the only way I can check is to fit it and then I can't send it back. So today it will be returned. My Vertex roof top tent actually fits OK as the ladder is actually higher than stated in spec. This coming weekend I'm going camping to test out the roof tent, shame I won't have a hub to test out too! Perhaps OEX will step in and let me try it if I give a review, it's got to be of interest if it fits smaller vans, there's loads out there, the roof tent ain't just for cars!
NB: My original vertex is billed on some sites as a 2 - 3 person tent, I can say that (unless its two small children), only one adult fits comfortably. Also, you may have heard that the ventilation is poor so it sweats, well I can say there are double zips on all windows and the door bottom is zipless so air can easily circulate through, either under the door, with door up and mesh in place and with widows partially unzipped behind the storm flaps that surround it externally (so rain won't fall in).
Ohh noo lol we might have to invest in this one 😊😊
Dose anyone know how the tent supports it's self whe the ladders are put away?
What is the minimum height a car can be for this awning to work ? I have a standard height 3 series and would be interested, but dont wannt end uo with an awning thats slack and creased
With the new upgraded roof tent. Besides the dimensions being bigger. What are the other things that have changed or new? Thanks.
Is this the new vertex roof tent, if so will the awning fit the last version of the vertex that go outdoors has just reduced
Hi Paul. The Hub is designed to fit the new Vertex Lite 130 but will also fit the older Vertex Lite model
Where can I buy 1 just bought the new vertex I need this awning 😮
Did you find were to buy?
No not yet, go outdoors said they are in selected stores, ive been to many stores looking and no luck. Said they will be avaliable online soon @angelahodge2137
The Hub will be online very soon! Some GO Outdoors stores have stock already so worth calling your local store to check
How high can the vehicle be (to top of roof rack)?
How is the base supported if you take the ladder away ?
Looks like it's all on the opening hinge, which will be knackered very soon. Plus the weight of the awning now on top too.
You would obviously need to lower the ladder and keep it down if you’re in it.
Whats the minimum roof height that it can be
