The East Lancs Spryte is a single-decker bus body built by East Lancashire Coachbuilders. It was designed to body the Dennis Dart chassis, but a handful had been built on others, for example, the Volvo B6. Mechanically and visually, it is a single-deck version of the East Lancs Lolyne, not the Myllennium Lolyne.

Like the Lolyne, it continued the line of deliberately misspelt names of East Lancs products. But unlike the Lolyne, which survived through the Myllennium series as the Myllennium-Lolyne, the Spryte didn't. Instead, it was replaced by the single-deck Myllennium, sometimes called the Myllennium-Spryte but that is not its official name.
