Really happy with the Wildtop Nomad canopy on my BYD Shark. The frame and canvas cover are both very good quality, and I particularly like the load-bearing design, which gives it a lot more versatility.
It was fairly easy to put together, although I’d definitely recommend using a torque wrench to get everything tightened correctly.
One thing I found with the Shark is that the tub tapers in towards the rear. Because of this, I needed to use a ratchet strap and a brace at the front of the frame to pull the rear together enough to get the canopy sitting properly. Once I had it positioned, though, it fitted up well.
I absolutely love the look of it on the Shark. The main reason I fitted it was to give my German Shepherd a secure, practical space, and it’s working really well for that.
Another big plus for me is that it’s clamp-on, so there’s no need to drill or permanently modify the tub. It can also be removed relatively easily if needed.
My only real criticism is that I would have preferred the clamps to be black rather than silver – I think they would look much cleaner and suit the Shark better.
Overall, really happy with the Wildtop Nomad. Good quality, great-looking canopy, practical load-bearing frame and easy to remove when required. Very happy with the purchase.
