Hillebergs are amazing tents, I've had a few, but for 99% of touring they are way overkill and you are just carrying extra weight for nothing, unless you really have the possibility to encounter extreme cold, snow, or severe storm in the middle of nowhere.

FWIW, my current favorite design comes from Sierra Designs, but I've found Big Agnes to make great stuff too. I've had bad luck with MSR and Marmot, and those are all the brands of tents I've had haha.

I always put my tent on the top part of the front rack. It fits there perfectly, but obviously you need to have a front rack with a top.
