The Triumph Dolomite Club - Discussion Forum

That's cheaper than we've been quoted, and a lot cheaper than Rimmer's VAT inclusive price, but as a Club we cannot take on product liability so are always reliant on the suppliers to the Club taking that on, particularly in safety critical items such as brake components.

It won't.
None of they Stag hoses are interchangeable with any Dolomite.




Ian.

There is no apostrophe in the hoses.
Please change the heading, it is doing my head in !!!!!



thanks,

As a note, Sprints with LSV removed use the 1850 rear hose

While I will happily save money on parts if I can, I must admit that brake components and especially hoses are a component where I will happily pay more for a well known branded product such as Goodridge, on the basis they have a reputation to maintain and are more likely to have better quality assurance and control systems in place. Certainly I have done that with both road Sprints, but of course did wait until our main supplier was offering a discount.

If you need reminding why, just see the photo below or watch the video of what can happen if the crimped end comes off. Never again, thank you!

There is no problem with supply of hoses for the Dolomite, so we have no need to look for others that 'might' fit.

Steve and I have the potential to supply Goodridge sets for the Sprint at £56 if there is enough interest?

I'd be interested in a brightly coloured set for an 1850 with trackerjack front brakes (sierra ca320 calipers)
Cheers
