Why this product
Why the CVT Mt. Shasta Softshell 56"?
The Mt. Shasta at 120 lbs is CVT's lightweight clamshell option, 25 lbs lighter than the comparable Mt. Bachelor while offering the same 30-second setup. The 3-plus-season rating and 600D canvas match CVT's higher-end specs. For payload-constrained vehicles or anyone who values fast setup and light weight, this hits a sweet spot in the CVT lineup.
