Post by: Parwaz7862 on February 17, 2016, 06:34:42 pm: If that Dc01 had a more powerful motor it would work really well with that soleplate and brush aswell I imagine
How still are those bristles in comparison to a normal late DC01?

Post by: ClassicDysonDealer on February 17, 2016, 07:44:03 pm: well my da001 has a fixed sole plate soled seal to the carpet and hoover junior stiff brushes the best sort of dc01 one that works

Title: Re: dyson DC01 MK7
Post by: ClassicDysonDealer on February 17, 2016, 09:23:39 pm: I would like to know too

Post by: DC01020304vacs on February 17, 2016, 10:12:26 pm: I believe the brushroll in the first picture is a 'Tripple Brush Cleaner - for deep down cleaning' l from a DA001 and features the yellow end caps.

My DA001 has the same brushroll and being original is very worn but I dont use the DA001 so I cant comment on its effectiveness. Somewhere there is an original advertising page from a catalogue which explains the Tripple brush (im sure of it).

Mvac, (if you are reading) Have you seen that type of Dc01 brushroll before?

Yes, the white ones do pop up from time to time. We have a tea chest full of DC01 brushrolls that we will fit bearings to when they go obsolete after-market. Some are white bristles.

Welcome to the Classic Dyson Dealer by the way. I am assuming the same chap I see on eBay. :tiphat:

Less often, but yes.

Post by: Parwaz7862 on February 18, 2016, 01:46:40 am: Wow :o

I never had a Dyson older than 1997 really, oldest being the DC01 but with one exception, I believe I may have had an older DC02 because of it's old grey shroud colour and the floortool being that wesselwerk durable type

Post by: beko1987 on February 18, 2016, 08:06:44 am: Mvacs do you know if any of the aftermarket DC01 brushrolls are quite stiff? I often think a very much more aggressive (some of my dc01 brushrolls have the stiffness of cotton...) would make it much better!

You must have ran your fingers over loads when you went hunting for the Rotork brushroll at Q...

Post by: ClassicDysonDealer on February 18, 2016, 08:55:11 am: yes it is
