Gazelle Ultimate t10 Review

[@Propelbikes]

Thanks so much for watching! If you're interested in learning more about this bike, check out the link in the video description!✌

I just bought this bike from a local dealer. They had an excellent assortment and let me test ride a number of models down the street to a test hill. I’m really glad I was able to do that. If I tried to pick one based on specifications, I would have ended up with the wrong ebike. The Gazelle T10 just felt right. It was a comfortable fit and had plenty of power even for this 200+ lb guy. Having a local shop saved me from making a multi-thousand dollar mistake with an online sale. TRY YOUR BIKE FIRST. I can’t emphasize this enough. My local shop earned their money and my business.

Could you specify the weight and the price ?

[@RoyMcAvoy]

Nice. A solidly built bike and solid review.

[@Propelbikes]

Thanks Roy! Much appreciated! We’re very excited about this one :)

[@BrazenNL]

That rear lock is ART 2 certified so you've satisfied the insurance requirement for keeping the bike locked. Easy to use so you always use it. I only use that lock by itself at the office where we have our own parking places and at home. For parking elsewhere I also use an Abus Ivy.

[@Propelbikes]

Thanks for the feedback! I learned this recently as well. Hope you have been enjoying the videos from your country. More to come soon 😉

[@jimreid72]

Very informative and helpful.

[@billfalik1]

Great review. How would you compare the Gazelle Utlimate t10 to the Specialized Como 5.0 for comfort, stability and power up hills?

[@Cstoreri]

He doesn’t deal with Specialized

[@georgekaplin12]

Do you have more info on adding an external lock onto the integrated tire lock? The Gazelle website is very vague with compatible accessories.

[@michaelbauer6126]

Thank you for your time.

[@Propelbikes]

My pleasure! Anytime!

[@Martin_HD28]

Great looking bike and excellent informative review.......

[@Propelbikes]

Thanks Paul! :)

[@Martin_HD28]

@@Propelbikes Is this same model bike is available in a non step through model?

[@Propelbikes]

@@Martin_HD28 I believe we might see something like that in the near future. If you email me I should be able to get you more details.

Nice review! 🙏🏾👏🏾 😊 At first really loved this EBike, however after much deliberation and personal experience with maintenance on chains and derailleurs 😬🥵thought otherwise. Why should we fork out thousands of dollars on a Commuter type eBike that hasn’t progressed on to Belt Drive?? Not doing it!! Turns out that Gazelle does have basically the same bike, but with a Belt Drive. It’s called the Ultimate C380, but not being exported to North America!! And it’s only in a boring gray color. 🤔 Come on Gazelle!! Where are the choices??

[@Propelbikes]

Thanks Gregory! I appreciate the feedback. I totally get where you're coming from and I hope that they eventually bring that bike to the states, but I think this bike is still a great fit for so many riders.

[@RitaD0724]

I bought this bike from Propel Bikes in Brooklyn a few days ago. Excitedly waiting delivery.

[@nitramluap]

As a touring bike, great. As an everyday utility bike, pretty ordinary. Disc brakes get banged up, as does the exposed derailleur; exposed chain gets dirty, makes a mess (your pants still hit it) & need maintenance... and I'm still not convinced about hydraulic brakes - too easily cut by vandals.

[@Propelbikes]

We don't really have the issue of the brakes being cut by vandals, but having a protected chain is helpful. Here in the states the racks aren't as crowded so disc brakes still work really well for commuters. Good points though

Top Video, thanks!

[@Propelbikes]

Thank you! Glad you enjoyed! ☺️

[@federicomaisch6812]

Great video, thank you

[@Propelbikes]

Thank you!

[@PeterKenyon]

Another great review.

[@Propelbikes]

Thanks Peter! I’m glad you enjoyed it! Let me know if you’d like to see anything in our future reviews. Anything we didn’t cover in the video which you would like to see more about?

[@dickthomson3436]

Beautiful bike!!!

[@Propelbikes]

Thanks Dick! We completely agree!!!

[@prlevett]

Nice review of the bike. I am curious with the stiffer frame on this Ultimate model did Gazelle stop the squeaking noise that affected the Bosch Power Tube battery mount on the Arroyo Elite model? reported by two owners on the EBR forum eg electricbikereview.com/forum/threads/2019-gazelle-arroyo-elite-squeak-when-frame-flexes-identified.27589/

[@Propelbikes]

I believe they did. We sold several of these bikes and I didn’t see the issue, but that happens sometimes. There is also an adjustment on the lock which you can shift the battery placement. Not sure if that was tried.

[@brianwright3564]

What’s the weight capacity of this bike?

[@paulschmidtke425]

I think this is the ebike I want

[@Propelbikes]

It's pretty awesome!

[@barriewylde5915]

are the tires folding or wire bead Nice looking bike: 🚴‍♀️

[@Propelbikes]

These are wire bead

[@michaelbauer6126]

No, I would want a class 3. I’m currently riding an Izip Moda E-3.

[@Propelbikes]

If you shoot me an email at [e-mail] I can send you some more option. Not all 2020 bikes have been released to the public yet.

[@Jurjenpatatema]

Are you guys going to Vanmoof?

[@Propelbikes]

We didn’t make it to Vamoof. We know some of their team in Brooklyn, but we didn’t have time this trip to visit.

[@Jurjenpatatema]

@@Propelbikes exited to see a review from you guys on vanmoof!👍

[@Propelbikes]

I don’t carry the brand so it’s a bit low on my list, but I’ll see what I can do.

[@michaelbauer6126]

What is the retail price of this bike?

[@Propelbikes]

Great question, it's $3799.

[@michaelbauer6126]

Thanks for the prompt reply. I forgot to ask is this a class 1 or class 3 bike?

[@Propelbikes]

Class 1. Is that what you’re looking for?

[@leojonkers3181]

The Purion display has in my opinion a big disadvantage. It makes it much more easy for thieves. If they are able to get the bike from the lock, it is ready to roll and work. I always remove my display when parking my bike, but this is not possible with the Purion. I would not buy a bike with this display. The bike is nice, new motor, nice place for the battery. A low step bike will be my next bike. I am getting a little older, now everything goes fine, but swinging my leg over the bike in 5 years when I am 70 years old? You see for that reason a lot of older man buying low step bikes. In my country, The netherlands, a low step is often called a woman's bike. But that is slowly disappearing, there are also lots of designs in between. And the low step bikes are much stiffer then they used to be. A real modern bike in my eyes would have a belt drive. Although you can discus if a belt drive, which can not have a sporty derailleur, will be the solution for a dirty chain and lower live time. They will exist next to each other in the future. Thanks for nice vlog!

[@tv175s3]

On the Gazelle site it says Intuvia display for the T10, maybe the pre-production here unit is different?

[@michaelbauer6126]

I forgot to ask if this is a class 1 or class 3 ebike?

[@Propelbikes]

This is a class 1
