Superior quality and low maintenance
We've mentioned it before: the Gazelle Ultimate . Ideal as a touring bike, but also great for use as a commuter bike. The name did not come out of the blue. Everything is ultimate about the Ultimate, from appearance to finish. You can choose from all kinds of variants. With a low-maintenance belt drive, for example. Or with stepless acceleration. And with the Ultimate speed pedelec you'll get home even faster after a hard day's work.
Gazelle e-bikes for all-round use
Take a quick walk before you go shopping. And maybe take the bike to work instead of the car? Every day is different. Of course, your e-bike must match this. Would you prefer not to make it too expensive? Would you rather save on maintenance? Or do you just want the best of the best? Whatever is important to you, Gazelle has a suitable electric bicycle ready for you.
Affordable comfort
The Gazelle Orange has a sleek appearance and many parts that give you a comfortable ride. For example, the stem and front fork are spring-loaded. The bicycle is equipped with a reliable and whisper-quiet Bosch mid-motor. You operate the engine with the advanced Intuvia display in the middle of the handlebars.
Versatile and contemporary
The characteristic, modern frame is the first thing you notice about the Gazelle Chamonix . But there's more. The bicycle has a reliable Shimano STEPS E6100 engine and powerful disc brakes. The battery integrated into the frame is perhaps the biggest secret of the Chamonix. Choose the 630 Wh variant and you can cycle no less than 100 to 170 kilometers on one battery.
The Grenoble also has a characteristic design, with a wide down tube in which the battery is nicely concealed. The Grenoble has a lot in common with the Chamonix. Yet there are also differences. For example, the Grenoble is powered by a Bosch engine. The battery with the highest capacity has 500 Wh. The maximum range of the Grenoble is therefore somewhat lower. On the other hand, only the Grenoble is available in a version with continuously variable gears.
