GBLove my new Avignon Got a Gazelle Avignon a few months ago, I am a regular bike commuter ~8 miles and it is a delight. No major issues. I like all the features, except 1) the bell doesnt ring very loudly and 2) cant charge with temp below 32F (which it often is in Boston winters) and cant ride befow 23F. I am 81 and can now pass the girls on the hills.

GBQuality, convenience, toughness and comfort Gazelle makes quality bikes to fit the mind and body. My ultimate C380 is full of quality components, an easily shiftable and maintenance free hub, and classic style and comfort. I’ve only got 50 miles on it so far, but am looking forward to all my future adventures. It’s exactly what I needed to get out and explore.

GBBreak Issue and lack of bottle holder pins/screws I received my bike approx. 10 days ago. I rode my bike about three times and heard a strange noise with my bike's break. For safety reason, I took it to my bike shop and learned that it wasn't installed correctly. It is unfortunate that I experienced such a simple issue so quickly. That's one of the issue. As for on the bike, I feel that missing a water bottle holding screws as a standard offering is unacceptable. From the pictures online, the C380 HMB had water bottle holder screws, while the actual bike is missing them. I am very disappointed that a bike doesn't have water bottle holder screws as a standard feature.

GBThe favorite bike in my quiver. I’ve purchased 2 Gazelle e-bikes. The first was for my wife - an Ultimate C380 HMB. Unfortunately, because of multiple spine & joint problems she is uncomfortable riding any bike. However, I liked it so much I sold it (too small for me) and bought an Ultimate C380+. I live and ride on gravel roads so I added a suspension seatpost and a different saddle. I love this bike, it’s becoming my favorite ride (I have several nice bikes). They are not inexpensive but they are very high quality. The frame is beautiful with a scratch resistant finish. The tires are durable, puncture resistant Schwalbes. The Gates belt drive is a worry and grease free delight. Other than air in the tires and rare disc brake adjustment there is virtually no maintenance. This is not a racing bike but it’s a utilitarian, super comfortable and just plain fun bike to ride.

GBThe Medeo's are incredible... The Medeo's are incredibly beautiful, functional and graceful riding machines - making transit, exploration and adventure a surely confident and joyous time. I love riding my T-10 (named Duchess) and my T-9 (named DoubleDutch) on the magnificent San Francisco hills and valleys. From the bottom of California Street to the top of Nob Hill, I rode a 25% (400 feet) grade, in 2nd gear/Turbo in 15 minutes! - and "reached halfway to the stars"!!! If only we could get to 50% E-bikes, 30% public transit, 20% private autos, and reach our vision zero goal. Can Gazelle help us get there?? I'm in...
