Hi There
Just got a sinclair C5 ,I did have have one around 12 years ago, but had to sell it due not having space to keep it! Well this new sinclair c5 has been in a garage for the last 10 years the battery is still connected .
The tyres are all dead! Does anyone know we're I can buy some new ones ! Or is there anyone in the the Devon area who know or can help me with this project. Love to start use it! Bring back lots of happy memory's
Regards
Richard

Hi Richard,

Welcome to the website  The tyres are a problem, the preferred option is getting a set of City Jets but they are no longer available in 16" size.  I've recently bought a pair of  Schwalbe Marathon tyres but haven't fitted them yet.

Theres a couple of us in the Poole/Bournemouth area if that's any help, whereabouts in Devon are you?

Hope you get your C5 working again

Thanks!

Dan

Thank you dan I hope to get it back on the road, seems i might have trouble to get tyres. I live in the Paignton area of Devon.
Thank you again dan

Hi Richard,

No probs. I do have a pair of unused Raleigh Chopper 16" tyres you can have if you cover the cost of the postage?  I have had these sort of tyres on my C5s in the past and whist they're not ideal they could be used as an interim until you find some of the nice city jet tyres.

On the pic above, I was trying to make out the serial: 100050100810? If that's what it is, would you mind if I listed it on our directory page along with your username?

ive got chopper tyres on 1 off mine too

So have I lol

Hi dan that would be great ! I will pay for you postage just let me know how much and I will send you the money!
I am picking up the Sinclair c5 tomorrow !

What's the best cleaning product should I use on the C5,,

The biggest problem is living in Devon is that no one else have a C5..

Hi there I think you will find that Ciff is the best cleaner as long as you wash it off after you have cleaned the C5 ...bye Chas
