We sell 15mm and 18mm drive belts via the C5Alive shop, these are perfect replacement belts, which are the right size, long lasting and easy to fit.

OEM spec is 15mm but we also supply a wider 18mm version which can help reduce belt slip if the drive cog is worn ,identified as a loud "buzzing" noise when engaging the electric motor.
