Topic: c5 that will not go in a straight line

[marcdonnelly]

Can anyone forward a suggestion so i can fix my c5 even when im pedalling it goes to the right rapidly and if you ingage the motor you have to hold the handlebars to keep it straight if you take them of quickly it wobbles seriously and goes to the right .Its so bad that ive took the brake blocks of because it rubs i pulled the calipers fully apart but still it goes right im confused

Who Me ?? Its not my fault the c5 is wobbling Ocifer &*%£$@?; ....
 Apart from the wheels you have checked, what is the frame like. any cracks ? once you are on it ( aint saying NOWT about weight ), the frame may twist and cause it to go squew wiff. just a thought.
   ............. off for another fosters

Got it! Have you tried moving the long straight thing that goes under your legs & is covered with a foam thingy? You can wiggle it from side to side. This moves the round thing at the front that is covered with rubber, and should help you go in a straighter line. 

Hope this helps! 

Sorry - couldn't resist. Hope you get to the bottom of it though!

As Chas say's a photo of underneath would help particularly of the rear end of the chassis (i.e the Y section) and wheel areas -

ONE WHEEL ON MY WAGGON  AND I KEEP ROLLING ALONG ON MY SIDE 

[marcdonnelly]

I have only one wheel on the left hand side do i need 2 wheels on the back of the c5 then ...

How many wheels do you have on it?

FUNNY - But not as funny as me!

[techytype]

technically speaking, all i can suggest is - don't park you C5 in the trolley bay when shopping in Tesco's, are dangle a can of WD40 on apole over the l/h side 

joking aside (well nearly), do both the rear wheels spin freely as i wonder if the r/h bearing is shot which is more affected when you weight is in the seat (not commenting on your weight  ).
