Dolan Track Champion Track Ends

Posted on
  • I'm trying to remove the track ends from my Dolan before I have it sent off to be painted.

    I can't for the life of me find an allen key that fits - I've tried 2.5mm and 3/32" but they're both too small, with the next sizes up in both measures too big.

    I've emailed Dolan twice with no reply and I want to know if anyone has any ideas before I cart it off to my LBS.

  • are they not torque head bolts, and not a regular allen key (just guessing)

  • I doubled checked just to see if I'd been completely blind but definitely Hex/Allen key.

  • 3mm ??

  • 3mm ??

    Sadly not, quite a bit too big.

  • there are some allen keys that are 5 sided rather than the traditional 6 sided
    could that be the issue ?

  • Dolan are a UK company, ring em and ask.

    Could your 2.5mm or 3/32" allen keys be worn? Sizes that small don't stand up to use and abuse very well.

    Good idea, but definitely six. Thanks!

    I bought a (big) set of decent allen keys brand new for this build, so no, but it's a sound idea. Thanks for your help.

    I think I'm going to ring them now!

    Thanks to everyone for their input.
