Gazelle C380+ Electric Bike Review

Were you riding my bike around in New York again? 😂 😂 😂 I just had to make the joke. I just ordered this exact bike from your shop in Brooklyn this past weekend with help from Matchmaker Basheir Babikir(Nice guy with professional service. 😊). I Loved ❤️ seeing your review of this bike, she is a beauty and yesterday I got word that she is in Massachusetts and ready for me to pick up at my local freight company. I have bought two bikes from you guys in the past and couldn’t be more happy with the experience I received. Thank you Chris and your Staff for all you do for the electric bike community, you guys Rock! 😊

Coil springs make the most sense for commuters really. They're not mountain bikes and you're not jumping off of huge drops where air springs can play out their strengths, instead you'll want something that absorbs small bumps well and is low maintenance, and that's exactly what coil springs are.

Ebikes have evolved so beautifully in a short time. I love riding so.

Gazelle always makes bikes that are pleasing to the eye.

This is the bike I have been thinking of upgrading to. Great timing.

Today, I was going to buy this bike, but after the test ride, I compared it to the Ultimate T10+. Although the C380+ was quiet, and smooth; it seemed lacking in handling, and responsiveness compared to the T10+. I took the T10+ home with me, because it was so much more fun. That’s not to take away from the other bike, which does everything well, and probably will have less maintenance. It just depends on what you’re looking for - both are great bikes.

Shifting without moving is handy in dense traffic, where you sometimes have to (almost) stop unexpectedly. Click back and take off again.

Thanks for the video. Waiting on delivery for the C380+.

Very nice bike, I currently ride a Cube Touring, and intend to upgrade to a belt drive. Thanks for the video and the info, Clffe.

In the netherlands you get 2 keys with your bike, and you need both for the insurrance. So don't loose one.

Your videos are spot on with info, opinions, specs and you’ve even ‘got jokes’! 🔌 🚴 ☺️

Thanks, great review

Wow, this might be my favorite e-bike choice so far. I bought the Lectric XP to replace my car, save money, and save for one of these really nice e-bikes. And I had bought the Lectric XP specifically for it's folding aspect and its 28 MPH max speed. It turns out the folding aspect isn't so useful to me after all. I tried taking it on a bus with me and this thing is still massive when folded. It's also heavy. I had to sit in the handicap seating area of the bus, and luckily there was only one other person who needed that area. I think that this Gazelle e-bike would be an excellent main bike for the Seattle area where I live, and I could either get a super cheap road bike for loading onto bus bike racks when I need to, or a non-electric folding bike that is lighter, but it would still suck riding back up to the top of this big hill I live on without the electric assist. I also like the high-step of this Gazelle bike. Now that I've experienced a low-step or step-thru on my Lectric XP, I can say that I miss having the opportunity for crossbar packs for extra storage. With a high-step, I can still step through the bike just fine--I'm flexible enough to step over even a flat crossbar if I tried. A high-step seems like a perfect compromise to me.

I bought one because of reviews like yours .👍

Definitely what I need ! 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

Best thing about this is the value!!

7:04 We really need a new camera scary moment 😱 😆 A well rounded review of what seems to be a well rounded daily commuter ebi

The high step version can mount a Powerpack 400/500 in addition to the integrated one but I haven't seen it. I want to know if it locks to the frame.

Nice bike. Good review. Thanks. For me this bike and the Serial 1 Rush Speed are the 2 best Class 3 commuter bikes available right now.

Gotta love this guy cuz his "Super excited about this bike" face and his "OMG you discovered the burial ground under my house" face are pretty much the same face.
