Your best bet maybe to find a second hand pair of lower specification Lupo’s (110’s etc) and use those, or even see if you can find a brand new old stock pair of boots.
When I was looking for replacement heel/toe sole pads for my Atomic Waymakers, I ended up buying new new old boots direct from Atomic’s outlet store, for only £20 more than others were selling just the sole pads.

Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

Thanks for the suggestions PowderAdict.
I was keeping an eye on ebay for used ones, but didn't think there could be new old stock direct from outlet stores.
Still, I find it a bit annoying though... early models of Lupo TIs had 2 set of tongues to adjust the flex. It seems to me like a reasonable replacement part to be available. FullTilt spares and tongues seem to be available in few UK stores...
I'm hoping to find some before haeading for the slopes.. but.... I've started looking into this last Feb so... we'll see...

Hey @jedster,
I contacted Dalbello customer service (via facebook... couldn't find contact details on their website) back in February.
I asked where I could find replacement tongues: they suggested to contact the shop where I got them.
I contacted that and several other stores, but no luck (either saying they would ask the rep, or not even interested in trying).
I contacted DalBello again in April, hoping they would have some spare. They said they didn't have/sold them so again suggested to contact my nearest store asking to place an order.
The shop in Cambridge were absolute stars and tried to order these.
Dalbello said that if the shop "persisted" with the order, the parts would eventually arrive.
I understand that DB distribution in UK has since changed and... still no parts.
It just seems very... complicated... and draining.
If the parts were broken and needed replacing I'd probably had to buy new boots I guess.
I read on some forum of someone breaking the levers on a pair of Tecnica boots - Tecnica sent replacements free of charge straight away.
Overall not too impressed with DB customer service...

I think we've got hundreds of pairs, contact us at www.solebootlab.com
They retail at 70 euros per pair, we should have all sizes and flex.

Thanks @CH2O - that's great! I had almost lost hope to be honest...
Do you ship to UK or Europe?
A bit more pricey than I was expecting (seeing Fulltilt ones for around £30 in UK... ~ €35) but I guess replacement parts tends to be expensive.
Will be in touch.
