Royal Dutch Gazelle North America Reviews 150

Was satisfied with your online forms and publication thanks

It’s a very well made bike. it handles well .it was a very good experience.

I greatly enjoy riding my Gazelle Tour Populair. With the emphasis of my cycling now geared more towards relaxed touring, my Gazelle more than fits the bill. Its upright posture is much more comforable than the road bikes I've ridden in the past. And its sturdy construction promises years of cycling enjoyment.

Impressed with promptness of response and information provided

Liked the looks and all the features, that is what made my decision to purchase this bike over others. Really like the bike

This review is solely based on fit and finish as the two bikes in question only have 12 km on them. First bike, Arroyo C5 that has a less than desirable finish on the inner mono fork. It appears the factory did not smooth the material out before paint as visible seams are present. Having said that, all such models with a mono shock seem to have the same issue.
The rear plastic fender also is deformed (not due to
transport).
The second bike, Ultimate 380 smart system has a paint blister on the dual suspension fork that is approximately 5mm in diameter.
For a company that boasts about a world class paint facility, they have clearly dropped the ball in more ways than one.
What's interesting is I had previously purchased the Ultimate 380 (non smart system) but also had a paint issue with burnishing not only on 1 bike but 2. This was witnessed at the dealer right out of the box. I thought I could solve the issue by up selling myself to the tune of $1,900, but sadly no such luck.
One would think such deficiencies would be caught after paint or perhaps final inspection before being boxed and sent out.
I would suggest anyone interested in the Gazelle line, take a hard look at the bike before finalizing the transaction.
In my opinion, if you're looking for a tier 1 e bike, consider Riese and Muller. A bit more expensive, but true craftmanship and quality is visible throughout their entire line.

I have been waiting more than a decade to finally get a Dutch bicycle, and I am extremely pleased with this bike! This is my first bicycle with a 57cm frame. I am 6’3” so it is more comfortable than any other bike I have had, it makes a tremendous difference! The build quality of this bicycle is obvious while riding, it is very stable at high speed. Although so far I have only gotten it to 26.6mph on flat pavement. I had an auxiliary battery added for extra range, riding 30 miles seems to have used almost no power at all as shown on the speedometer. I will probably be able to ride 200 miles without recharging. I have been as excited about this bike as a young kid getting their first bike! Thank you to Gazelle for an amazing ride!

The dealer that I bought the bike from was helpful and very knowledgeable. The company reps in the US very also helpful. There are many things I absolutely love about this bike; the way it rides and handles, the design overall, the looks of the bike and the safety theft features. The one an only thing I am disappointed with is that I wanted a bike that had a drop seat on it. This bike does not and it does not have the option to add one. After purchasing it and riding it, I am concerned. As a senior this would be a nice feature to have. I dont get down easily from the correct height I should be riding it at.

This bike is just right for me. It's not made for heavy duty riding and that's fine. I'm retired, so I love the step-thru, the weight, & the size. It's a lovely little touring bike.

So far it seems to be a great bike for a reasonable price. Very well made.

Most comfortable bike made. Great riding bike, power is enough to keep you moving. Bike has a great fit for a tall rider.

I just love my Gazelle. I purchased in September and look forward to ride every day, mostly for exercise and to enjoy the ambience of our local environment. It is an exceptionally well built machine, smooth and comfortable. I wish I had been introduced sooner!

High quality product. Love it. Don’t like the confusing way of activating the bike on the app. Can’t be done.

I bought a Gazelle Ultimate T10 mid for my wife. We didn't know what to expect, as we were buying this bike based on test rides with Treks that had the same Bosch mid-motor and liked the way they operated. With something like 150+ new eBike manufacturers out there we were concerned about the expected company failures and merges that will take place as the industry consolidates. We wanted to buy from an established manufacturer, and that led us to Gazelle. The bike arrived, I put it together, and it went out for a test ride. My wife raved about how it handled, how smooth the ride was, and how the mid-motor adding to her pedaling action without jerking. I took it out for a ride and totally agree. This Gazelle is probably the nicest bike I've ever ridden. The fit and finish is great, the ride is great, the motor is great - I recommend this bike!

Now that I own a Gazelle T9, I’m able to see up close how beautifully built it is. The welds are smooth, the paint quality is like a Rolls Royce. But most of all it’s wonderful to ride. It fits me perfectly and feels as natural as riding a traditional bike — without the work! It’s so much fun.

Purchased an Avignon late October. Really appreciate the ease of riding this bike provides. Love the upright positioning. I wish the saddle was a bit more cushy though. I will make an upgrade on this in the future. Solid bike.

I wrote a review already.same bike, still works great, only a bit of vine when low gear uphill only now and then. Bike shop says that’s when 8 am “workimg against the gears”. Who knew!

Absolutely a great product. I purchased myGazelle Ultimate C380+ in February 2023. With nearly 2 years and 6 months of ownership I am approach 8,000 total miles ridden. Besides a shift cable adjustment just after my purchase and a Bosch Purion replacement needed and covered by warranty I have had no issues with this purchase. The bike looks and rides like new.

Bought the Eclipse C380+ from a local dealer here in Washington, DC. Lots of commuting time on my past two e-bikes (non-Gazelle) informed this buying decision. I wanted a more upright posture, front suspension, little to no maintenance (I was having to clean/lube chain twice a month), stepless transmission, excellent build quality, and be esthetically pleasing. I hit a home run with the Eclipse C380+. The Bosch auto mode coupled with the Enviolo is a match made in heaven, and the 750wh battery means I have no range anxiety and I don't have to charge at work before the evening commute. I added the Bosch ConnectModule kit after I purchased (easy to install yourself), for piece of mind. Around 700miles in, I recommend without reservation.

I recently purchased the Arroyo C8 CMB. I highly rate the comfort level (saddle!), the easy switch adjustment on the handlebars (no tools needed!) and the pure joy of exerting low energy while climbing a sharp hill with a 25 mph wind in my face. This is what I paid for and I'm happy in this regard. The not-so-pleased part includes a squeaky battery casement when riding. I found the issue mentioned on a reddit site specific to this model. I have added grease to the sides of the battery and added a sponge cushion to the bottom of the battery before loading it. Bike shop did some adjustments to the removable cover to no avail. The noise is truly ruining a pleasurable ride.
