Spare Wheel Strap

Dear all.

I have been searching for a Dolomite Sprint spare wheel strap but have had no luck. Is there anyone in the club that has a spare one they are willing to sell? If not any ideas where I may be able to purchase a strap from?

Many thanks, Roy Sne

Rear crank seal dolomite sprint

I would like to change the fuel hoses on my Sprint as mine are starting to break down, as they are just R6 unleaded hoses.

I’m having difficulty getting gates barricade R14 ethanol proof fuel hoses. Moss Europe are out of stock and don’t know when they will be getting new stock in. I’ve seen this ...

Sticking calliper piston

I currently have a problem with a sticking calliper piston on a 1976 Dolomite Sprint which has tandem brakes.

I am looking for any recommendations on whether to just fit a seal kit, or to completely replace the piston with stainless instead of steel, as well as fitting a new seal kit?

Many thanks ...

Dolomite Sprint wheel nuts

Does anyone know if these are original Dolomite Sprint wheel nuts or after market? The ones I have seem to be steel with top hats - see pictures.

Thanks, Roy

Hi all

My sprint was first registered in 1976. Over the years it’s been fully restored and is now complete.
