My advanced basecamp has a double draft tube on the zip but that bag is specified with that; although, I upgraded it to a full length zip. Reading their site it doesn't make it clear whether the zip option comes with a draft tube but I did find this that suggests that they do:

Zips on the Minim 400 are an option, but most competitors don't ask for one. A short zip with draft tube adds about 55gm (2oz): a full zip & tube adds about 120gm (4oz). Zips also add to the packed size.

Got mail back from PHD, when they fit a zip they also fit a draft tube. Have now ordered a Minim 450 with zip. Thanks for the help folks...

Quick update my nice new PHD sleeping bag has just arrived. Looks pretty good and PHD were true to their word in terms of delivery times. Looks and feels like it will be plenty warm enough so looking forward to trying out on my next trip. Thanks again for your help.
