I can't even get into the head.  Is there a way of doing that?

If I could, I would have a go at fixing something flexible to act as a new skin on the hose - tape is no good as it won't stretch.  The hose needs to flex.  Such a pity Dyson didn't think this bit out properly.
Every time I vacuum up after doing a bit of DIY, I reflect that a bit more house is turning into dust and being thrown away.

You can strip them so far, think there is a guide. if you get some clear or silver duck tape and attach it with the hose stretched, then force the hose back to its compressed state it usually works OK ish.

Hmm I know it was done by Beko, when he reads this he might remember where.
